The BTC-T Honda Civic Type-R is a BTC-Touring class racing car that was built for the 2002 British Touring Car Championship season by Arena Motorsport, who ran Honda's official works program.

In 2002, Honda announced that it would return to the BTCC after a year's absence, with its works program being run by Arena Motorsport.

[2] Andy Priaulx and Alan Morrison were announced as the two drivers who would drive in 2002, and, after a fairly slow start, Priaulx achieved the cars first ever podium, with a second place at the Croft feature race,[3] and then a victory at Knockhill,[4] with Morrison also winning his first race, at the last event of the season.

[6] 2003 would see an even stronger performance, with Honda Racing expanding to a 3-car team, with Matt Neal and Tom Chilton being entered, along with the retained Morrison.

Arena Motorsport continued to enter Chilton, and James Kaye also continued to drive his Civic, but the cars proved to be much less successful - Chilton's 5th in the championship being a reflection of a smaller grid, although he did achieve 4 wins in the season.
