The only thing I can think of is that a couple of VKs were bought in from outside TWR for initial testing and assessment prior to building the actual race cars, or for some reason when the first test car was built it was easier to build it as a VK- maybe in late 86, before the VL was homologated?

TWR allegedly tested a Brock/Carurettor/VL and found that its aerokit generated lift instead of downforce, and was wonky to drive because of that...
If there were VK's in the TWR garage, they would likely have come from Roadways, Mr Small's equipe. I will ask next time I see him...
