Jimmy Lin is not only a superb car racer he has just entered the arena of "F1 Power boat racing". Power boat racing is a very expensive sports. A single power boat costs more than TWD70M. It costs TWD100M to train a racer. He has been inducted into the China F1 Power Boat team and will go to France to train. He may become the first Taiwan power boat racer. Jimmy's car racing ability is at the professional level and won the grand championship of the Taiwan Super Car Race and 1st place in the Asian Renault Formula Challenge. He already has a boating license. The China F1 Power Boat team picked him and hoped to train him to become a racer. He said, "It's a nod of approval for me. It's hard to train a power boat racer. Trainees go to France to train for a yr and take the exam in the UK. It costs about rmb20M (TWD97M) to train a racer." He got a taste of power boat racing at 200kph with a coach. It was like flying an airplane on water and it's cool. translation by l_coco @ http://asianfanatics.net source : sina.com
