In 2005, Wayne Shen & Francis Tjia took the challenge of building a team to prepare two Ferrari 360C into extremely competitive cars. Surrounded by two experienced French motorsports specialists, Pierre Rigaudin and Freddy Verdon, their goal was to join the Hong Kong Supercar club series. After one year of great result, John Shen joined the team with a 3rd Ferrari 360C.


Two years later the team decided to move on with the Ferrari 430C, which they prepared and tuned with the help of their regretted friend driver Allan Simonsen to its optimal performances. In 2007, the team also started to take care of five Formula Renault in addition to their four Ferrari 360C, three Ferrari 430C and one Ferrari 550GTS.
