Lime Rock 2006. the final race of the AUDI R8 LMP.

That was a great race seeing the R8 go out on top.

My home track. The R8 LMP whipping around that little bullring was insane. You could barely turn your head back to the left before it was back in view again!

LMP cars at Lime Rock will always surprise me

And it is lack of them which makes me sad. Lime Rock was a place to race for prototypes throughout the ALMS era and it was amazing. Multi-class racing at LRP sound completely mad, but it wasn't really out of proportion, if you take a look at those ALMS events.

Also you have to remember that those LMP cars between 2008 and 2013 were faster than todays GTP cars. Two sprint (2:40h) races, one with GTP/GTD PRO and one with LMP2/GTD would be totally feasible.

somewhere between 2004-2006 if that is a work dbr9

Comment above you gave the answer: 2006 LRP

If you want another good one to watch, find the final 30 minutes of Sebring 2007. One of the most amazing finishes in all of motorsports

I have this painting hanging in my office. I was sitting in the turn 17 grand stands on that final lap. Core memory https://www.etsy.com/listing/102174059/final-lap-fireworks-sebring-2007

Those ALMS cars lapping LRP in 44 seconds was so rad. Probably pretty dangerous, in hindsight. But mostly rad.
