Slightly odd scheduling, a second consecutive round at Brands, with a 5-week gap between the two....

There's an album of 1984 Brands BTCC pics by Peter Novani on Flickr- the crowd in the background doesn't seem big enough for the GP meeting, so possibly they're from this meeting?

Updated to include cars shown in the Flickr pic album. One question- the pics show the Drury Alfas as numbers 40 (Dowsett- name clearly visible on the door) and 42 (Smith?) I thought they were 40 and 41? Given this pic (frustratingly, there's no visible driver name on the door- the livery is different to the no.40 car), had I just got the numbers wrong, or was there a late-season change of drivers?
40- Dowsett:
