Cracking the 200 mile an hour barrier can be a piece of cake especially when the Continental Supersports rides on 275/35 ZR20 Pirelli Ultra High Performance rubber. So to up the ante, Bentley put the Supersports convertible on a 20 centimeter thick frozen Baltic sea and gave it the beans. Result: The Conti-SS sailed passed 199.83  mph to reach 205 mph breaking the record and the man behind the wheel was Juha Kankkunen.
