Bentley sets new Production record at Pikes Peak

Bentley achieved his goal at Pikes Peak. Rhys Millen set the new Production category record by completing the 20km-long Colorado climb in 10'18''488 at the wheel of the Continental GT at an average speed of 112,3km/h.

L’ancien vainqueur de la course de la plus célèbre côte américaine a amélioré de 8 secondes la performance réalisée quatre ans plus tôt par David Donner sur une Porsche 911 Turbo S.

“The finish of this edition was incredible with rain and snow at the summit. We came here with one goal which was to set the best time in the Production category. We had to face Mother Nature, but the Continental GT held on until the end,” said Rhys Millen.
