William Au-Yeung, the owner of Waterloo, Ontario shop, PZ Tuning, has established himself and his team as a top competitor in the time attack series, both in North America, Japan and Australia. William Au-Yeung's journey in motorsports began with passion and the thrill of going fast, pushing his limits to achieve success at every event he had attended. Over the years, he has honed his skills in car setup, driving, and tuning, making significant strides in the time attack community.
The partnership between Au-Yeung and Vibrant Performance took off in 2015, coinciding with his campaign in his Unlimited Class Acura RSX. That year also saw the unveiling of his Unlimited Class Honda Civic, with primary sponsorship from Vibrant Performance and Borg Warner. By 2016, this partnership was taken to the next step by unveiling his car as the official Vibrant Performance Unlimited Honda Civic, a race car designed specifically to shatter records and redefine the Unlimited class at iconic tracks like Buttonwillow and NJMP Lightning, not to mention clinching the Overall FWD Record at Road Atlanta and Gingerman Raceway.
By 2018, Au-Yeung's ambition and skill enabled him to campaign both his cars, setting Limited FWD records with his RSX at Road Atlanta and M1 Concourse in Michigan. However, it is the Vibrant Performance Time Attack Civic that has truly cemented Au-Yeung's legacy in the motorsport world. The Civic was very distinctive when on track, for it imposing a massive front and rear wing and was powered by a formidable 2.4L Honda K24 turbocharged engine that was enveloped by the latest and greatest components found in the Vibrant Performance catalog such as: All fuel hoses and fittings, HD Clamps, Aluminum Tubing, Intercooler Core, and a Titanium Exhaust system. This Civic ended up dominating each track it had attended, leaving an indelible mark at prestigious events like the World Time Attack Challenge, Super Lap Battle USA, Tsukuba Circuit, Pikes Peak Hill Climb, and several Gridlife competitions.
Yet, William Au-Yeung's contributions to motorsport extend beyond his trophy-laden mantle, he is also recognized for his technical expertise and innovative approaches with his work in aerodynamics, suspension tuning, and turbo charged engine fabrication. Through sheer determination and innovative spirit, Au-Yeung has not just raced; he has redefined the very fabric of time attack racing. We look forward to continuing with Will’s journey as he prepares his next vehicle for this upcoming season: Vibrant Performance Time Attack Civic V3.
