bentley themselves own the blower and the other cars so they can afford to race it. a collector would never let this happen
@wickedmartyn2 жыл бұрын
@@melodi_music_official its irrelevant in my opinion who owns it or just how much money they have, that car may have a physical price tag, but think of it, that car is over 100 years old, the methods, knowhow and the people capable of making some or most of the parts, by original methods is long gone. If that car crashes, if it loses a body panel, any damage to the engine, anything at all, it will never be the same again. Yes they may have the money, and the modern day equivalent of a fix, but there are parts on that car that are simply irreplaceable. One minor issue and that cars value is irreprepably damaged, it's probably the reason that it's only worth 20m and is now owned by bentley, where its properly cared for. Somethings, money just cant replace, my friend!

Doesn't matter where it came, the 93 year old Blower won, simply by the fact it happily did full sends up and down the runway.

What a great video this is. Kudos to Bentley for keeping the Blower in such great condition. Cars really do fall apart when not driven. I live in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. There is a couple who regularly drive their 1912 Ford Model T. In regular traffic! It is a beautiful rich red, and is original colour. The car was bought new by the gentleman's grandfather. It is always a thrill to see the old cars being used. I only wish there had been one more Bentley, a Continental from the mid-50s, with the sweet inline 6 cylinder. I also wonder how an original Speed Six would have fared.

Some cars of the 30s are deceptively quick. The engines produced an otherworldly amount of torque and made good power. Some describe the acceleration of those old beasts as if it were "the hand of God" pushing you forward. It was a weird but insane feeling when those things gained speed.

@@arcane6656 check out the 1939 Autounion type D. It had a top speed of 211 mph and you could induce wheelspin at over 100. That sucker was a monster of a racecar in its day and would still give most modern day cars a run for their money on a track.

@@sincity2562 Just read a little about its history and it's nuts. Audi apparently now owns 3 of the remaining 5. Maybe we can see one in an Audi museum. I never thought that these older cars were this fast and powerful. I think of them as doing 0-60 in 60s. Guess my whole life's been a lie. Thanks for the recommendation 😀

Four great BENTLEY for an amazing drag race . I choose the 2022 or 2023 Bentley Continental GT Speed. I can say the blower but it is not fair. It will be to sold out the blower and by a lot of sportscars. Thank you for the run with 3 passengers in the blower.
