The first car was shared between Renaud Kuppens and Benjamin Lessennes, while the in the second car Stéphane Lémeret was joined by one-off drivers - Tiago Monteiro, Norbert Michelisz, Matt Neal and Kris Richard with Michelisz appearing three times as Lémeret's co-driver. On two occasions the team entered a third Civic - at Zandvoort for Monteiro and Jean-Louis Dauger, driving with a special livery, while at Assen Tom Coronel and Michael Verhagen shared the No. 1 car. Lémeret finished the season as series' champion.

For the next season the team entered initially 2 Civic's again, before fielding only a single car for the remainder of the season. Only Benjamin Lessennes drove for the team during the entire season, but he became series' champion brinnging the drivers' title back to Boutsen Ginon Racing

2018 World Touring Car Cup
With the formation of the FIA World Touring Car Cup, the team entered the new series, fielding the new FK8 Civic Type R TCR for Tom Coronel and Honda works driver Tiago Monteiro. But since Monteiro was still recovering from injuries sustained during a testing crash the previous year, Benjamin Lessennes (who remained as test driver with the team) was called up as the Portuguese's replacement, with Ma Qing Hua taking over for the rounds in Ningbo and Wuhan. Monteiro did return at Suzuka, before Ma returning again for Macau

2019 TCR Europe Touring Car Series
For the 2019 season the team switched to the TCR Europe Series, entering a single FK8 Civic for Tom Coronel. But as Coronel had driving duties with Comtoyou Racing in the World Touring Car Cup at the TCR Europe season opener at Hungaroring, his place was taken by Stéphane Lémeret. As the team is Belgian-registered the team and its drivers by extension are also eligible for the TCR Benelux championship, which is part of the TCR Europe calendar.
