Was at Oulton Park this weekend, good racing
Best bit was Bentley Le Mans car, driven by Derick Bell.
Was told by the engineer is was know as the Sebring car, as it was set up as it was for the Serbring race it did.
There was another one there,pics to follow, that has been set up as a 2 seater, design to take Bently owners out for an experiance.
So who has a Bently, so we can get a free ride!

The body panels must have changed then as they had the three lights on the side as per the cars as this years LM. The cars in your photos do not have them.

These are the cars run by the Crewe team, one was used at Silverstone this week ( 2 seater). They are not at Goodwood this weekend as they are off to the USA for 2 weeks as customers demo cars.
Asked one of the guy's when they will be next at Le Mans, and he said he did not know, but wish they would get back on day.
Told one was the 2001 and the other 2003 (sebring car), but not one of the parts were interchangable.
If anybody knows more let me know, I'm only good we beer, but that is only to drink and not to take pics of.

That was quite entertaining, seeing that circulating, a contrast from the pre-war cars which had just been running around ;D
