Two experiences were on the docket. The participants would alternate between several lead-follow laps on one half of the course, and
a short but high-speed dynamic ride along on a separate section. The former strapped themselves into one of the Continental GT
Speeds, their day’s instructor riding shotgun, and took off behind another instructor piloting a Bentayga. Gradually building pace,
drivers were provided instant feedback on throttle and brake modulation, racing line, and the various capabilities of the advanced
chassis, suspension, and engine of the 12-cylinder super-coupe.

The latter group took turns in the passenger seat of either a Bentayga or Continental, struggling to keep their lunch down as the
professionals see-sawed the vehicles just under and over the edge of control. The precise ballet, conducted by experts who seemingly
never broke a sweat, provided only a glimpse into the vast potential secretly lurking under the sheep-like exteriors of these luxury
behemoths. Most impressively, every Bentley on boil featured the original brakes, tires, and fluids found in those on the Bentley Palm
Beach showroom floor. Not a single one required any special attention over hours of abuse—a true testament to the manufacturer’s
proud motorsports heritage.
