Bentley And Travis Pastrana Launch Dynamic Film Of SuperSports Model 

The new and now sold-out Bentley Supersports has demonstrated its exceptional agility and performance in the hands of motorsports and extreme sports athlete and legendary stunt performer, Travis Pastrana. Today sees Bentley and Pastrana launch ‘Supersports: FULL SEND’, the most exhilarating and dynamic film ever released by Bentley, and shot entirely at Bentley’s campus and Dream Factory in Crewe, England.

The Supersports’ combination of 666 PS, rear-wheel drive and a highly developed chassis and aerodynamics package elevates Bentley’s on-road dyanamics. To showcase the car’s agility, Pastrana worked with Bentley in September last year to create a gymkhana-type film within the grounds of Bentley’s factory, originally constructed in 1938 on Pyms Lane in Crewe – Bentley’s own ‘Pymkhana’. Supersports: FULL SEND is a celebration of the new Supersports, Pastrana’s extraordinary precision and ability, and the Bentley factory itself, recipient of significant self-funded investment over the last five year.

Supersports: FULL SEND was premiered yesterday to an audience of 400 invited customers and guests at a launch event in Dubai, UAE. You can see the film on the Bentley YouTube channel here.

Pastrana was chosen by Bentley to support the filming project based on his long career of extraordinary stunts, motorsports successes and extreme sports. Supersports: FULL SEND follows Pastrana’s final official gymkhana film, ‘Aussie Shred’, which was released last month and also been viewed almost nine million times.

Pastrana commented, “I knew the Supersports would have a lot of power but I was happily surprised by how nimble and fun it was to drive. I’ve never driven a production-based car to film a video of this magnitude before, without a clutch or modified steering angle, I had my concerns – but the Supersports exceeded all of my expectations. It was exactly what I had hoped for – the perfect combination of luxury and performance.”

CARLIST THOUGHTS

FULL SEND was shot over the course of three days at the Bentley factory, supported by scores of Bentley colleagues who volunteered their time, after the star car was specially prepared in the on-site Engineering Technical Centre by a dedicated team of technicians.
