Supercar Club Hong Kong (SCCHK 香港超級跑車會) and Motorsport Asia Limited ( MAL ) have reached a mutual agreement whereby SCCHK will assign the new race series " GT3 Asia Challenge" to ( MAL ) which will be exclusively responsible for the organisation, management and operation of the series. We believe that as MAL is the leading and most professional autosports promoter in the region, this will bring top class GT racing to the mass population in China and Asia.

Paul Yao ( SCCHK ) will be the Series Director, and his official team will be responsible for the communications with all race teams, whilst SCCHK will have more time to provide service to members focus on all track days , social events, and joint marketing efforts.
