4½-Litre 'Blower' Birkin Monoposto
Bentley 4 ½ Litre SC Single Seater “No.1 Birkin Team Blower”
1 of 4 Birkin Blowers
1 off single seater bodyThe next target for Birkin was the outer-lap record, which was held by Kaye Don in a supercharged V12 engined Sunbeam. At the Easter weekend Birkin broke the record by lapping at 135.33 mph. Don duly reclaimed the record later in the season. Birkin continued to race the Monoposto at Brooklands with some success before he had it further modified for the 1932 season. The engine was slightly enlarged and larger carburettors were fitted. It was sufficient to set a new record at 137.58 mph.
