The Terry Drury Alfas and Kirby's 'Salmon Can' cars were all in trouble with tyres- according to the race report, suffering from Dunlop only being able to provide a choice of 'the right size, but the wrong (too hard) compound, or the right compound but the wrong size...
Performance Car reported this round and the next at Thruxton in a single article, so coverage is a bit sketchy[ /QUOTE]
Had another look at this home video style Oulton Park shoots:

A rough car count, on what is presumably the first lap, reveals 23 cars circulating in "this" order:
1. James Weaver (A-BMW 635CSi) whitish
2. Andy Rouse (A-Rover Vitesse) blue
3. and 4. Peter Lovett and Tony Pond (A-Rover Vitesse) blue
5. Win Percy (A-Toyota Celica Supra) white/red
6. Frank Sytner (A-BMW 635CSi) white
7. Vince Woodman (A-BMW 635CSi) whitish
8. unknown (A-Ford Capri) ex-Woodman?
9. Jon Dooley (B-Alfa Romeo GTV6) black/white, 1:58
10. Chris Hodgetts? (C-Ford Escort RS1600i) white/blue
11. Robin Brundle (B-MG Metro Turbo) blue/white
12. Richard Longman? (C-Ford Escort RS1600i) red
13. Paul Smith or Phil Dowsett (B-Alfa Romeo GTV6) red
14. Alan Greenhalgh (C-VW Golf GTI) yellow
15. Graham Goode (B-Nissan Bluebird Turbo) white/red/blue
16. Alan Curnow? (C-Ford Escort RS1600i) red
17. John Morris (B-VW Scirocco GTI) red
18. Rob Kirby (B-Alfa Romeo GTV6) white/red
19. Paul Taft (B-MG Metro Turbo) white
20. Rob Hall (C-Ford Escort RS1600i) white/blue, #72, look for 1:28
21. Paul Smith or Phil Dowsett (B-Alfa Romeo GTV6) red
22. unknown (C-Ford Escort RS1600i) white
23. John Myerscough? (C-Alfasud Ti) black #57
Only one Computervision Metro, but from KA's result that would be because Patrick Watts had already parked his car. So 24 cars on the grid?
Then at about 1:50 Charles Sawyer-Hoare appears in the #13 Rover, making it 25 cars?
