Lola racing cars driven by Chris Craft

I am keen to compile a list of races by Chris Craft when he was driving Lola cars.
I know he won the Martini Int. at Silverstone in 68 driving a Techspeed entered Lola T70 Mk 3 but he also drove T70 Mk3b's quite a few times for David Piper and others, any info will be appreciated, thanks and Happy Christmas,

Chris Craft

Yes I might have been in the middle of that racing but I did not either, race with Chris Craft every week-end or make notes of his history at the time.

Thanks to Dan Rear for his answer, any other info will be appreciated
Happy Christmas to all,
Barriebrdc

If you are not already aware of it, this site http://wsrp.ic.cz/ will be a good starting point to build up a list. You will need to click on the various relevent buttons on the left such as "British National Races".

Chris Craft was one of the first drivers to race a Lola T210, probably in 1970. That may have been de Cadenet's, too, although I'm far from certain.
