There were 45 starters at the qualifications, and 35 of them could start the eventual race. It was a 12 hour race (2 heats of  6 hours).
1988 - The second Le Mans Classic Team Race was contested in Chicago (USA), again with all the best racers of the world at the start. It was the fifth round of the Endurance World Championship.

1994 - The third Le Mans Classic Team Race was contested at Rouen (F), but was restricted to the best European racers of the moment. It was a 24 hour race (2 heats of 12 hours), contested with 1964 Le Mans cars. There were 16 cars at the start, good for 40 racers. Germany's Dennis Bauer had no team mates and had to drive 12 hours non-stop. JPVR drove on 2 cars during more than 12 hours. Jozef Miskolci drove more than 9 hours. It was the last race of "Rosse Snor" who drove the whole time with a controller in his right hand and a bottle of beer in his left hand.
2001 - The fourth Le Mans Classic Team Race was contested at Grimbergen (B) over 3 heats of 12 hours each. It was called "the race of the century", since at the end of the race it should be decided who of Jan Limpach (USA) or Vladimir Horky (CZ) should be the best racer of the 20th century. Both they were leading the famous IOC-Ranking, only 5 points from each other. It was one of the most thrilling races in history, contested with 1998 Le Mans cars, fit on PlaFit chassis.
