Returning once again in 2011 is Superlap veteran Jacky Yick in the Pro Concept built S15 Silvia. This car has been in a constant state of development since claiming the fastest rear wheel drive trophy and a fourth outright in the Clubsprint class at WTAC 2010. With an emphasis on vehicle dynamics, aero and corner speed rather than outright horsepower the team has been continually fine tuning what was already a potent combination. The engine is now sporting forged internals and a host of Nismo goodies thanks to sponsor Link International and the team is more hopeful than ever of moving onto the podium for the 2011 event.
Jacky Yick is also no stranger to motorsport with a history in Nissan Silvias and Hondas dating back to 1997 and having raced in Australia and overseas. Some of his notable achievements are listed below.
