False, in Japan, LFA was tested on Yamaha track. Why do you think they brought those car journalists to Fuji? Not because Toyota own it, cuz out of all the main land Japan Fuji is known to outsider more than Tsukuba.

Even BMI drivers stated many time that, Tsukuba's top speed, braking or lateral G's are lower than Fuji, resulting can't see the full potential for those super cars. Fuji is well known track in the world. That's why most of Lambo, Ferr, Pors & other super car race in BMI were/are done in Fuji (there are few exception, due to the costly).
