Kim stopped racing relatively early, partially in recognition of Brad's ability as a driver with Kim becoming team manager. The team's peak in open wheel racing came in 1981 when running an Elwyn chassis, Brad finished sixth in the Australian Formula Ford Championship. The pair faded as the 1980s developed but after a return via Bryan Thomson's Sports Sedan/GT team led to the Jones brothers becoming involved in the Mitsubishi touring car team known occasionally as Mistubishi Ralliart. Racing with Mitsubishi gave Brad several opportunities to race overseas, racing Starion turbo touring cars in Australia, Japan and across Asia. Eventually the brothers formed their own team BJ Motorsport to further the Starion touring car operation, qualifying the Starion 10th at the 1986 Bathurst 1000 after being fastest on the 1.9 kilometre long Conrod Straight during qualifying at . But by the end of 1986 that faded out and Brad Jones become a hired gun driver for other touring car teams. This included running the full 1989 Australian Touring Car season racing a turbocharged Ford Sierra RS500 for Peter Brock's Mobil 1 Racing, and later endurance races at Sandown and Bathurst for the Holden Racing Team, Wayne Gardner Racing and Larkham Motor Sport.
