For the CLK- GTR (V-12) it was the last race of FIA GT Championship 1997 in October 1997 at Laguna Seca, Bernt Schneider won the Championship
For the CLK-LM (V8) that would also be Laguna Seca October 25th 1998 when Klaus Ludwig sewed up the 1998 FIA GT Championship.
For the CLR...it was withdrawn from the 1999 Le Mans race after flipping.

the demise of the Mercedes at LeMans
Thought you guys might be interesting in seeing the event that signaled the end of the LeMans program. It's amazing that no one was hurt - except for some trees.
