I'm trying to assemble the last few bits of data to get a page of British F3 races from 1972 ready for oldracingcars.com

There are seven races where I'm in need of specific material - the problem is mainly, though not exclusively, the number of non qualifiers at some races, who aren't listed in the press.

Please, don't refer me to the Formula 1 Register Dossier for 1972 - I already have way more information for most races than F1R has published - or to formula2.net, where the F3 results are pretty much a copy of what F1R published already. What I'm after is more detailed than that, and the only way to get it is through original documents.

So, if you have any pertaining to the following in the attic, shed or garage, please get in touch.

29 April 1972 Oulton Park, Lombard championship
There were up to 18 non qualifiers at this race. Since I know only the top six on the grid I don't know yet who showed up and didn't make the cut, and who didn't show.
Need:
A grid of qualifiers - even in a programme but that would come second to time sheets
Also, need a results sheet.

28 May 1972 Brands, Lombard championship
Up to 23 non qualifiers here.
I know who qualified, and have a programme, so
I need a time sheet from practice to know who didn't

11 June 1972, Silverstone, Forward Trust championship
15 DNQ
I know who qualified, and have a programme, so
I need a time sheet from practice to know who didn't

25 June 1972, Brands, Lombard
8 DNQs
I know who qualified, and have a programme, so
I need a time sheet from practice to know who didn't

23 July 1972, Mallory, Lombard
14 DNQs
I know who qualified, and have a programme, so
I need a time sheet from practice to know who didn't

6 August 1972, Thruxton non championship, Echo Trophy
Need almost everything, programme, grid, better results than press gives.

28 August 1972 Silverstone, Forward Trust
Need grid, better results than press gives. Entry list kindly supplied by Adam Ferrington

Any help much appreciated and properly credited on oldracingcars.com results pages.

Thanks

To give an idea of what Chris is creating, here is our coverage of the 1974 British F3 season:
