Why I Want This In GT: We need more Le Mans cars, and, in my opinion, this looks better than the 2003 Speed 8 we have in the game.
From Wikipedia: In 2001 Bentley returned to the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans race, after a gap of 68 years, for a planned three-year campaign with the EXP Speed 8 in the closed-cockpit LMGTP class. During its run, the Bentleys were the only cars to run in the LMGTP class. Two cars were entered, with one earning third place behind a pair of Audi R8s. The other car unfortunately retired after a strong run in the rain due to a fire which caused the driver to abandon the car. Bentley returned in 2002, using their new larger engine, now running a lone entry as a testbed for the evolved Speed 8 in 2003. The car managed fourth place, once again behind only R8s.
Specifications:
Engine: 3600cc twin turbocharged 90° V8
Power: 637 HP
Torque: 479 ft-lb
Gearbox: 6-speed sequential
Weight: 917 kg
