In 1975, Jacky Ickx won the Le Mans 24h race with the Mirage GR8. The Mirage race cars were developed by the English JW automotive Engineering and they were actually the first cars that were sponsered in the iconic blue-orange Gulf Oil colors. Between 1970 and 1978, the Mirage cars always finished in the Top 10. The victory on Le Mans in 1975 was besides their best result also the last victory of the team.
