You seem to confusing race and championship series with individual races. What do you mean by your question?

[Ahonen]

No particular order:

Le Mans 24
Spa 24
Bathurst 1000
Nurburgring 24
Sebring 12
Petit Le Mans
Daytona 24
Monaco GP

Plus I suppose you'd have to add these, purely because of the spectacle:
Indy 500
Daytona 500

Honorable mention for the Chamonix 24hr ice race. Though it wasn't (isn't?) a 24hr race as such, ice racing in the middle of the night is pretty spectacular stuff - with headlights shining at very silly angles...

Edit: Ah yes, Macau. Awesome track. Damn, that's 12.
