On August 20, 2006, Toyota F1 test driver Ricardo Zonta set a new lap
record of 1'06.039. The previous record time was 1'07.722, set by Helio
Castroneves in a Penske Champ Car during the 2000 CART Honda
Grand Prix of Monterey. The record was re-taken by a Champ Car on
March 10, 2007 by Sébastien Bourdais, who lapped in 1'05.880 during
Champ Car Spring Training.
Since Zonta's time and Bourdais' times were set during an exhibition and
testing (respectively) and official records can only be set in race
conditions, either in qualifying or during a race, they are unofficial times.
The official record remains 1:07.722 set by Helio Castroneves in
qualifying for the 2000 race.

From the ALMS website, fastest qualifying time for ALMS was.
Acura ARX-01B - 1:10.103 - 2008
I cannot find evidence of an Audi R10 doing a 1:08.xxx
If this was done, it wasn't done in any practice/qualifying/race for IMSA.
