Serpent confirm long term deal with Viktor Wilck

Having just earlier today announced that he was to leave long time sponsor Tamiya, Viktor Wilck has been confirmed at Team Serpent. The Swedish ace has signed a long term deal with the Dutch brand to run their complete lineup of cars, both on and offroad, and will be making his touring car debut this weekend at the 2nd round of the ETS in Muelheim Kaerlich, Germany. The deal sees Serpent further strengthen their factory race time with Wilck joining Marc Fischer on the EP TC team, Greiner, Mazzeo, Green and the Sahashi brothers in the Gas TC team and Mike Truhe, Hupo Honigl and a soon to be confirmed German superstar on the offroad team. Viktor had this to say about his new deal:

I’m happy to reach this agreement with Serpent and HP Hobbyprodukter. I felt there was time for a change and after a close relationship with Swedish distributor this opportunity came a long that I could not pass on. I have seen the quality of there products from racing Serpent’s nitro cars and was impressed by their performance so I am really looking forward to this new partnership and to the prospects of achieving good results together over the coming years.
