Era Motorsport's debut came at the 2020 24 Hours of Daytona, in which the team ran an Oreca 07 for Tilley, Merriman, Ryan Lewis, and Nicolas Minassian. The team initially formed a partnership with DragonSpeed before opting to run the full LMP2 season as a standalone operation. The car finished third in the LMP2 class, followed by Tilley and Merriman scoring three more podium finishes that year. The duo also entered the 24 Hours of Le Mans for IDEC Sport alongside Jonathan Kennard; despite Merriman crashing in practice and being replaced by Patrick Pilet for the race, the car finished 15th. Although Era was second in the LMP2 standings with three races remaining, the COVID-19 pandemic and Merriman's injuries prompted the team to withdraw from the championship.
