Look somewhat like the Stealth B6, although I can spot some differences.

Now compare it to the Toyota GT1.  Looks even more similar! ------------------

Interesting that they have chosen a closed cockpit, I guess a GT1 comeback might be coming. Are closed cockpits more aerodynamically efficient than open ones??IP: Logged |

An excellent advertising idea to restore some of the sporting lustre Bentley lost during the "Rolls-Royce Babylonian Captivity" but isn't this just a warmed-over Audi LeMans racer? But who's complaining? A brilliant idea and unquestionably the right way to go.------------------

Now, just if we can get Aston Martin back into Le Mans. They've only recorded one win, with the DB-R1*secret hides his ideas for the 2004 Aston Martin DB-R04* ------------------

Looks beautiful. May be a contender to the infamous Toyota GT1. It's British too (well originally). Anyone see or heard about the Bentley Hunaudieres concept? Got a picture not too long ago. ------------------
