Bentley Continental GT World Speed Record on Ice

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.viatara.com/blogspot.js"></script>In early 2007, a Bentley Continental GT Speed, driven by four-time World Rally Champion Juha Kankkunen, broke the World Speed Record on Ice - on the frozen Baltic Sea near Oulu, Finland. It averaged 321.6 kilometres per hour (199.83 mph) in both directions on the "flying kilometre", reaching a maximum speed of 331 km/h (205.67 mph). The previous record was 296 km/h (183.9 mph), achieved with a Bugatti EB110 Supersport.<br /><br /><br />The record-breaking Bentley was largely standard except for a roll-cage, aerodynamic improvements, and low-temperature fuel and calibration.<br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://bentley-for-sale.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/bentley_continental_gt_speed_official_specs_image011.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2008/klm/2008-Le-Mansory-Bentley-Continental-GT-Pearl-White-Rear-And-Side-Top-1024x768.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.automobilemag.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0708_a%2B2008_bentley_continental_GT_speed%2B08.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.dragtimes.com/images/10918-2007-Bentley-Continental-GT.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiLWD0-eYMQFGkfnq14OB8ODmQqykxa0RrbRHC18gUDlRsrNDjDRHsWTtSSV17QzP3FCvATzUz6Q0s247xW8EE5jnzGR_qlgXLff4eI6qxAt1fuRgGay_DopZiP8ZiXH7DNvlB10L1SyJl9/s1600/bentley_continental_gt_priceless.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.vwvortex.com/artman/uploads/continental_gt_stage2.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.automobilemag.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0708_a%2B2008_bentley_continental_GT_speed%2B07.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://fancytuning.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/asi-tetsu-bentley-continental-gt-3.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.desktopcar.net/wallpaper/20847-2/Bentley_Continental_GT-S_193.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br />Bentley Continental GT<br /><img alt="Bentley Continental GT" src="http://www.seriouswheels.com/pics-2008/klm/2008-Mansory-Bentley-Continental-GT-and-GTC-GTC-Rear-And-Side-1024x768.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 260px;" title="Bentley Continental GT" /><br /><br /><br /><object height="300" width="400"><param name="movie" value="http://youtube.com/v/meaMI8HSb_s&hs=es_ES&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://youtube.com/v/meaMI8HSb_s&hs=es_ES&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="300" width="400"></embed></object><br /><br />All Review videos and more of:• Infiniti• Mitsubishi• Aston Martin• Isuzu• Nissan• Audi• Jaguar • Pontiac• Bentley• Jeep• Porsche• BMW• Kia• Rolls Royce• Buick• Lamborghini• Saab• Cadillac• Land Rover• Saturn• Chevrolet• Lexus• Scion• Chrysler• Lincoln• Smart• Dodge• Lotus• Subaru• Ferrari• Maserati• Suzuki• Ford• Maybach• Tesla• GMC• Mazda• Toyota• Honda• Mercedes-Benz• Volkswagen• HUMMER• Mercury• Volvo• Hyundai• MINI.and MORE....
