It ran initially in 1982 in the World Sportscar Championship before also joining the IMSA GT Championship. The final NRA/C2 would be retired in 1984 after the planned NRA/C3 replacement had been cancelled and the company went bankrupt.<br /> <br /> In 1983 Nimrod Racing would turn to the IMSA GT Championship in North America with two cars evolved into the B-spec bodywork, while EMKA Racing would take over Aston Martin's efforts in Europe with their own Group C car. Viscount Downe would remain in the World Sportscar Championship with their lone entry as a privateer.<br /> <br /> Nimrod suffered throughout the season in North America, earning their only success as the 12 Hours of Sebring with a fifth place finish, third in the GTP class. For the rest of the season the NRA/C2 would struggle to finish and Nimrod was forced to abandon the series towards the end of the year.<br /> <br /> The NRA/C2, in this video, was sold to Jack Miller's privateer team while Nimrod returned to Europe. Miller's Performance Motorsports finished off the season with an eighth place finish at the Daytona Finale. Even with the troubles, Aston Martin took fifth in the GTP constructors championship Aston Martin DB4 Lightweight HGTCC Spa Oct 2007 tag:www.thevrl.com,2009-01-11:1465153:Video:55337 2009-01-11T14:09:41.430Z Conor O'Brien https://www.thevrl.com/profile/ConorOBrien <a href="https://www.thevrl.com/video/aston-martin-db4-lightweight"><br /> <img src="https://storage.ning.com/topology/rest/1.0/file/get/2177950315?profile=original&amp;width=130&amp;height=97" width="130" height="97" alt="Thumbnail" /><br /> </a><br />The last 2 laps of the HGTCC 45 minute race at Spa.
