Today, a number of Courage-designed cars race in the Le Mans Endurance Series (LMES) and 24 Hours of Le Mans. Among these is the Courage works team of 2 cars (the LC70 model), currently competing in the LMP1 group of the LMES, which held its opening race in Istanbul Turkey on April 7th to 9th, 2006.
