Bentley reveals Continental GT3 racer
Ten years after introducing the Concept car that eventually became the
Bentley Continental GT, the legendary British Company is back at the
Paris Motor Show, with another high-performance "concept" car. The new
member of the Bentley family, this Continental GT3 is a concept in name
only, as the organization is specific about the point that its first
appearance represents a return to motorsports for the brand.
Previously we saw the flying B on a race car, it was when Bentley was
claiming credits at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2003. The GT3 looks for
to take up that layer, as well as the history of road-going Bentleys
being modified into popular sports jet car.
Though specialized information’s are nonexistent in the Bentley press
release, the company has given us something to work with, with regards
to the sport car that will eventually outcome from this system. The GT3
will, normally, develop on the very powerful performance of the
Continental GT Speed, including a rear-drive framework, a large
aerodynamic system (the side seen here is no joke) and "state-of-the-art
motorsport components."
Bentley's return to the track isn't so far off, either. The company
claims that the FIA supported racer will be in the pits by the end of
2013; capable of competing in multiple series and events, including
endurance racing. If the final product doesn't end up at Le Mans, we'll
eat our hat.
