Video: See Bentley's record-setting 205 mph run on ice


When we first heard that Juha Kankkunen and Bentley had succeeded, a new ice-speed record on the coast of Finland set, we immediately wanted to see pictures of the action. The thought of just one race prepared Continental Super Sport convertible pen stroke is only 20 centimeters Baltic Sea ice is the kind of things that followed our daydreams. Fortunately, the car manufacturers run to slip as friendly as the world is a quick clip of the record-smashing, complete with angles from the sky, the ice and the cockpit.

Kankkunen be torn down old ice-speed record of 199.83 hours of 2007 miles in the set. At that time the World Rally Champion was on a cruise over to miss the 200 mph barrier, but shooting just his mark. He had no such problems this go-round. His drop-off head of a top speed of 205.48 hours clicked miles.

Interestingly enough, except for a set of winter tires, some safety kit and a few additions Aero, Continental Super Sport convertible that Kankkunen was used as a weapon of choice is essentially a collection of bones machine. Hit the jump to check the clip for you.
