The team started development of the Jaguar racing car in 2011. While Lorenz Frey and Fredy Barth built the racing team, the car was built by Bemani Motorenbau AG.
The Swiss team launched a Jaguar XKR based racecar built to GT3 specifications in 2012. However, as GT3 regulations allow little in season development the car was homologated into the RACB G3 class. The development was headed by Emil Frey's grandson, Lorenz and Fredy Barth. Experienced GT racer Gabriele Gardel joined the team during the races and Rolf Maritz joined the outfit for the 2012 24 Hours of Spa.
In 2013 the car had many problems, so they decided to run an Aston Martin V12 Vantage GT3 instead.
For 2014 the Jaguar was fitted with a new Ilmor 5.0L V8 engine to compete the full 2014 Blancpain Endurance Series. Lorenz Frey, Gardel and Barth competed the majority of the season. Jonathan Hirschi joined the team as of Spa. Frey placed second in the opening test session of the season opener at Monza. However, a small fire in the car damaged the car resulting in the team having to abandon the race. In the 2014 24 Hours of Spa the team suffered multiple gearbox and suspension issues causing the retirement. Hirsche replaced Frey for the season finale at the Nürburgring moving the team into the Pro class. At the German track the team finished nineteenth overall, tenth in class.
Former Sauber operations director Jürg Flach joined the team as the technical and operations director as of 2015. Frey, Barth and Gardel returned as the driver trio in the 2015 Blancpain Endurance Series. In the season opening 3-hours of Monza the team retired with engine problems. The team returned at Silverstone with an 18th overall finish, third in the Pro-Am Cup. The team had no technical issues during the season finishing every race, including a 27th place at the 24 Hours of Spa. The team won the Pro-Am Cup at the Nürburgring season finale.
In 2016 and 2017 they entered a second car for the 24h of Spa and Blancpain GT Series Endurance Cup.[/quote]
