"  Bentley plans to officially unveil their Continental GT-based race car concept at the LA Auto Show, but the Crewe-based manufacturer offered a sneak peak of the heavily modified GT3 contender to a small crowd of invited attendees at a Hollywood sound stage. Boasting aggressive bodywork and 2,200 pounds of weight loss, the GT3 car makes visual promises that will hopefully translate to race victories for Bentley. Setting the tone was a panel discussion with Motorsports head Brian Gush, World Land Speed Record Holder Andy Green, Motor Trend Editor-at-Large Angus MacKenzie, and Bentley board member Rolf Frech; the proceedings were moderated by racer Justin Bell. The chat touched on everything from the GT3&amp;#039;s test schedule to RAF Wing Commander Andy Green&amp;#039;s upcoming attempt to break the 1,000 mph barrier, but the real star of the show was the winged race car, which loomed large on the left side of the stage. And while there&amp;#039;s nothing wrong with experts talking shop about going fast, nothing quite compares to the thrill of watching a fearsome race car roar past on a track-- which we hope to experience soon with Bentley.
