A Unique Drag Racing Car Based on a Bentley Created in Ukraine

The luxurious British coupe, known for its comfort and weight of over two tons, has been transformed into a true acceleration monster. This project is a vivid example of how Ukrainian engineers combine technical ingenuity, a passion for speed, and the ability to work with the world’s most exquisite machines.

The car has been significantly modified: all unnecessary elements were removed from the body, the suspension design was changed, special wheels and a safety system were installed, and the engine underwent deep refinement. Instead of a calm grand tourer, a true racing car now stands at the starting line, capable of tearing up the asphalt in the first meters of the distance.

The project has preserved the characteristic lines of the Bentley Continental GT—it is still a recognizable silhouette, but in a new, aggressive interpretation. The lightweight construction, redesigned aerodynamics, and the character of the roaring engine create a completely different image of the car—from an aristocratic coupe to an uncompromising dragster.

Such projects are particularly interesting against the backdrop of today’s realities: after all, old Bentley Continental GTs in Ukraine can now be purchased cheaper than a new Duster, and sometimes even in the price category of an ordinary Logan. Yet, despite this, transforming a former symbol of luxury into a combat machine for drag racing is an idea that is still impressive. There is something characteristically bold about it: taking a luxury coupe that has lost its shine on the secondary market and giving it a second life on the track.
