Now that looks like a very welcome addition to the GT class lets all keep our fingers crossed that it actually happens

My bet is that Bentley will opt for the lighter V8. Quote:

This week's Autosport has a story that M-Sport will be building GT3 Continental, up to their debut late in 2013.
No word on building customer cars after that, as yet. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/104857 |

Fourtitude reports that the Continental GT3 will get the Audi turbo V8 instead of the W12 engine:

I wouldn't be surprised to see the car make it's public debut at next month's Goodwood Festival of Speed as a runner, not just on static display.

Over 1000kg taken off. My guess is around 1050-1100kg gone from the Continental GT. That would put this at 1225-1275kg.

Wonder if any of the technology from this 42 liter V-12 Packard/Bentley engine with 1500 HP will carry over?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DruAUxV9kaI It does have the big wheels and a Little Honking Fin. |

Looks good but it is a big car, still it will be very hard to pass something that size

Will be following the car's progress keenly. It's a lump - but it's the kind of car that makes me want to go to a race track and check it out.

Should be a stellar driver lineup then if they're still developing the car. Excited |

Disappointed it won't be at British GT's final round, but good to see it entered for something at last. The whole programme so far has been carried out with class and a high degree of transparency and looking forward to its debut - let's hope they can sort out streaming for the event this year.

I'm looking forward to seeing that in 10 days or so at Yas Marina.
