Wink Turbo S VS Bentley Continental GT Coupe

Crusing on the highway (3 lanes) and I see a car with nice headlights coming up pretty fast in the left lane, it passes me and I see its a really nice Dark blue Bentley with a little spoiler on it. I catch up and the guy was driving aggressively and I saw some open road ahead so I go to catch up to him

I am in the middle lane, hes in the left lane, I am about to pull up to his rear bumper and he hits it, I down shift into 5th gear and go WOT (low boost 13psi) He goes from about 1.5 cars ahead to me stopping the pull and slowly but steadily pulling on him. Like the Rousch Mustang I want to end this guy quickly so I flip the switch to High Boost (20psi) while I am still WOT and I CATAPULT ahead of him putting a car or two on him in a few seconds. I literally blew right by him

Looked at the Stats and it only has 552BHP, so factor that in and the fact it probably weighs 5,000lbs, its no wonder I was pulling on him in low boost

Cut-out was closed too, didnt want to go ricer style on his ass

Yea I know, I usually just toy around for a few seconds on the highway, never line up and do a "drag" on a highway, or whatever, I know its still not safe etc............

No, it doesn't. It weighs roughly 5,300 lbs. The Bentley Continental GT is a 4WD vehicle, which is why it's able to pull high 12-sec. quarter miles while only having 552 bhp.
Nice kill, Joey. I bet you'd smoke the Continental GT Speed also. It has 600 bhp, btw.
Hell, I'm sure you'd pull on a Continental GT SuperSports as well. That car weighs about 4,900 lbs and has 621 bhp.
