About The SSMD Group

SSMDG Gran Turismo Championship

​

The SSMD Group Gran Turismo Championship has a rich history dating back to 2009, when fourteen drivers based in Hong Kong competed in various championships for two years. However, as many drivers started families, the racing had to be put on hold. 

​

In August 2018, Franco Wong and Bem Ho reconnected and, along with other drivers, launched the SSMD Group Gran Turismo Championship. Today, the championship is growing with twenty-three drivers and counting.

Each championship season features a new theme, ranging from Touring Car Races and Japanese Performance to Classicsracer Trofeo Corsa and the current Classicsracer K20C Challenge 2025. The seasons consist of eight rounds, with one round of three races held every fortnight. The races include a qualifying event to determine the final sixteen grid slots.

​

To accommodate drivers of different skill levels, the SSMDG Driver's Level is ranked in
Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Green based on their experience in Gran Turismo
and Average Score per Attended Race (ASPAR) in the SSMDG Gran Turismo Championship.

​

A unique Balance of Performance system is applied to drivers to ensure fair races based on
the Lap Analysis of each race. Additionally, SSMDG Race Regulations are in place to cover
any rules missed by the Gran Turismo AI system.

​

We are proud to see the championship growing and look forward to welcoming more drivers to join us.

Since 2 March 2025, the SSMDG Gran Turismo Championship, organised by SSMDG eMotorsports Company Limited, is now officially an affiliate club of the Hong Kong, China Automobile Association (HKAA). This exciting partnership marks a significant step in SSMDG's growth and reinforces our commitment to promoting motorsport in Hong Kong. We look forward to working with the HKAA to elevate the motorsports scene and bring more thrilling events to our community.

Lastly, we would like to extend our gratitude to our championship sponsors.
