The Bentley Continental GT3 Posted by (4:18) By: Bentley Videos Uploaded 10 years ago 4626 Views 4626 Views Share Description Bentley had its debut for the new Continental GT3 race car at the 2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed. This racing machine is set to explore the extreme potential of Bentley's iconic Grand Tourer, the Continental GT. The Continental GT3 is powered by a race-prepared and dry-sump version of Bentley's powerful but efficient 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, with many components carried over from the road-going engine. Developing up to 600 bhp in unrestricted race configuration via a motorsport engine management system, the V8 provides the GT3 with highly competitive power in a compact and lightweight package that's perfect for racing. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a carbon fibre propshaft to an Xtrac six-speed sequential gearbox with a limited slip differential, mounted as a transaxle for optimised weight distribution. Gear actuations are completed via a pneumatic shift system, controlled by paddles mounted to the steering wheel.
