NASCAR

D'Hondt entered NASCAR in 2007 as a partner in Riley-D'Hondt Motorsports with Bill and Bob Riley and Jim Matthews as co-owners. They made their debut at Richmond International Raceway in the Busch Series with Bobby Santos III qualifying seventh in the No. 91 Toyota Camry and finishing thirtieth. David Green drove the next three races in the 91 and had a best finish of eleventh before Santos drove the car at Loudon, starting 4th and finishing 33rd. Santos also drove two races in a second car, the No. 92, in two races but did not finish either of them. In addition, Marc Goossens drove in the Sprint Cup Series at Infineon Raceway, where he finished 36th. After the season, Riley left leaving D'Hondt as the sole owner. The team's only start in 2008 came at Watkins Glen International, where Kyle Busch finished second in the No. 92 Zippo Toyota.

In 2010, D'Hondt formed a partnership with Randy Humphery of Prism Motorsports and fielded two Nationwide entries that were owned by MSRP Motorsports, Prism's former nome de pleur. Danny O'Quinn, Jr. drove the No. 90 for 20 races and David Gilliland drove the No. 91 for 16 races, with Chase Miller driving the car for 7 races. Both teams started and parked for the season. Following the 2010 season, the team was not heard from again.
