The Bentley is the only LM GTP (closed cockpit prototype sports car) I believe.
I just read an interesting article in the Detroit news talking about Cadillac, and how GM really doesn't support the team as well as Audi supports it's team. The Audi's spend three times more on their team than GM does on the Cadillac team ($60 million vs. $20 million IIRC). I guess that's why Audi can afford to develop cool things like direct injection, while Cadillac has to make do IRL heads, or parts from the Opel touring cars that aren't proven for endurance racing.
