Could Ralliart have invited him/BBW out to gauge how their own cars were faring?
Brodie and BBW definitely had 2 cars in '85- the second car appeared at a couple of BTCC rounds, (Silverstone GP for Vern Schuppan and the last round at Silverstone for Takahashi and Schuppan shared the car at the TT- at the risk of wandering off topic, I think both cars were entered, but only one appeared).

As Jesper said, Brodie also appeared at Macau a couple of weeks after the Fuji race, as part of a 3-car team with Kevin Bartlett and Michael Lieu- I wonder if it was in a Japanese Ralliart car he used at Fuji and Macau, one of Bartlett's Australian cars, or one of Brodie's regular pair?
