There's a grey one in the Season review bearing no 34 I think. The shot was likely taken at the Silverstone International Trophy F2 meeting race?
However, the car in the Donington pic, now at the beginning of this thread, is still in TWR white and blue colours, from 1981.....

The Palmer/Blackburn car was red - a color shot from that Brands Hatch meeting mentioned, made it into one of Janos Wimpffen's picture appendixes to "Time and Two Seats".
Discovered that Palmer was driving this white RX-7 during the 1985 Donington 500 and wonder if it is the same as the '82 car:

The Gordon Bruce car is descriped as being ready wery late for the first round at Silverstone sporting "a delicate shade of grey primer". This seems to have been the only race Bruce did.
Mike Kimpton was the only RX-7 entry for the Donington July race, so it must be him in the white/yellow/blue car. I have found a note on this entry as being #30 Electroplan Racing.
