Now thats interesting- I've seen a reference to 7 works cars in the last few days on the web but can't recall where- the site had pics of the John Smith car as I recall...
By works cars, presumably we're talking about cars built by TOM'S in Japan, rather than cars built outside Japan- Did any of the European cars (think there were something like 6 active in Europe during 1988, 2 from each of
MIL in the BTCC, Bemani in the DTM and ETCC and RAS Sport at Spa) come from TOM'S? I dont think we saw a TOM'S entered works Supra until Spa 1989
