I have a few old Irish programmes from back then. I just leafed through them now and there's not a whole lot in the ones I have. In any event, here's what there is.

Bisquit Cognac Leinster Trophy Mondello Park 11.07.1971
Sports Cars and Specials race.
#51 A. Collier 1445 Daren Mk2
-------------------
Carlow Trophy Races Mondello Park 'August Monday'.1971
Formula Libre race
#51 A. Collier 1445 Daren Mk2
-------------------
Demolition Trophy Race Mondello Park 17.10.1971
Sports Cars and Specials race
#51 A. Collier 1991 Daren Mk3
-------------------
another Daren reference you may have interest in is this one for Tom O'Leary:
Demolition Trophy Race Mondello Park 22.10.1972
Sports Cars and Specials race
#43 T. O'Leary 1594 Daren
-------------------
There's just very slightly more in this next one. There's a photo of Arthur sitting in a racing car... but you only see Arthur not the car, so its difficult to tell what it could be. There's also a small piece of text, see below.
Phoenix Park Races 02-03.09.1972
" Arthur Collier (Bunclody), won the Duckhams Sports Car Championship at Mondello Park last year and was third in the Dunlop Hawthorn/Irish Shell & BP Trophy race. Drives the works Daren Mk3 this year. "

Strangely, in the programme itself the entry for Arthur in both the Handicap and Players No. 6 Grand Prix is :
#36 A. Collier 1790 Chevron B19 FVC.
There is a Daren entered for Tom O'Leary :
# 43 T.O'Leary 1594 Daren FVA.
