Timeline
In the beginning of 2006, Kwan was persuaded by Matthew Marsh to race for the team at the Le Mans 24 Hours race. Although he agreed, the team was not granted an entry by the ACO for 2006 and therefore did not race.
In 2005, he acted in a consultancy role for the Hong Kong Le Mans Team set up by Hong Kong-based-British racing driver Matthew Marsh.
In 2004, he did the MMER again with Amprex Motorsports, this time using an ACO/FIA GT1 spec Lamborghini Murcielago R-GT and sharing with German driver Norman Simon and Genji Hashimoto. The team easily out-performed every other entry and led most of the race until it broke down once again, handing victory to the Honda Malaysia Racing Team.
In November 2004 he made his only appearance in the FIA GT Championship by competing in the series' China Round in Zhuhai. Driving for GPC Sport, he shared a Ferrari 360 Modena with Matthew Marsh and finished 4th in the GT2 class, after suffering long delays in the pits due to a starter motor problem.
After the final race of the 2004 Porsche Carrera Cup Asia Series in Macau, he announced his retirement from racing so he could spend more time with his family. But he clarified that his retirement is from seasonal championship style racing only and he would still take part in endurance races. He finished third in the race and set fastest lap: 2:31.956. [1] He also finished third in the championship.
In 2003, he shared the driving of the BMW M3 GT with Genji Hashimoto and Matthew Marsh. The team led the race after a fierce battle with BSA Motorsport's Radical SR3 and Porsche 911 GT3 Cup until problems hit. The team finished way down the order.
In 2003, he moved back to the Asian scene and became the first champion of the inaugural Porsche Carrera Cup Asia Series, despite losing the final race to Malaysian former F1 driver Alex Yoong.
From 2002, the team switched to a BMW M3 GT prepared by Schnitzer Motorsport, but the car was just not competitive against the fully tuned up Japanese machines.
Between 2002 and 2004 he also competed in the Merdeka Millennium Endurance Race at Sepang, Malaysia with Amprex Motorsport.
In 2002, Kwan, Kevin Wong and Genji Hashimoto drove the Japan GT spec Mazda RX-7 in the race, although it set a scintillating pace, it did not have the reliability to finish the race.
In 2001, he joined Amprex Motorsport and raced in the Japan GT Championship's invitational race at Sepang, sharing a Mazda RX-7 with team owner Genji Hashimoto. With Kwan driving, the car was up to third place in the GT300 class when it broke down.
The SEATCZC became the Asian Touring Car Series in 2000 as the series changed to use Super Production regulations. WK Longman Racing joined the series with their duo of Peugeot 306 race cars, to be driven by Henry Lee Jr and C. Nattavude, with support from engine tuner Richard Longman in the UK.
Kwan went on to become a three-time champion of the SEATCZC from 1997 to 1999, driving a Super Touring BMW 318i for EKS Motorsport and sponsored by Total/Fina.
In 1994, he competed in the South East Asian Touring Car Zone Challenge (SEATCZC), driving a BMW M3 for Three Crowns Racing. In the Zhuhai street race supporting the BPR Global GT Series, Kwan had qualified his BMW M3 second on the grid. Right at the race start, both Kwan and fourth place starter Henry Lee Junior were hit by Thailand's S. Prutarit and Man Manit, who drove Mercedes Benz 190Es for AIM Motorsport and were on pole position and third place. Both Kwan and Lee retired as a direct result. In a 2006 interview with Car Plus magazine, Kwan said he still considers that to be his most memorable race, due to the unsporting behaviour against him.
Also in 1994, Kwan was sponsored by San Miguel Corporation in the Macau Guia Race and became the first Chinese driver to drive for Schnitzer Motorsport, alongside regular drivers Steve Soper and Joachim Winkelhock in the team's BMW 318is. The race was also a round of the Asia-Pacific Touring Car Championship. In the end, Kwan finished fifth overall as Winkelhock won and Soper finished second. He would continue to drive for Schnitzer in the next few years.
Kwan first came to prominence, after winning numerous supporting races in prior years, he won the Guia Race in 1993 in a DTM spec BMW M3 and two other races on the same weekend (one was the Supercar Challenge in a Porsche 911 and CTM Cup race). In the Supercar Challenge in 1994, he was the first driver to give the Ferrari F355 its first win on its race debut and for the following year, it was a Ferrari F50 he repeated the feat.
Charles Kwan Siu-Cheung (Traditional Chinese: 關兆昌, born September 3, 1963) is the most successful Hong Kong racing driver who has competed in the Macau Guia Race, Japan GT Championship, FIA GT Championship, Porsche Carrera Cup Asia, South East Asia Touring Car Zone Challenge (SEATCZC) and the Asian Touring Car Championship. He was the winner of the 1993 Guia Race, three times SEATCZC champion and the 2003 Porsche Carrera Cup Asia champion. He also performed roadtests and wrote columns for car magazines in Hong Kong.
