Re: The new Stig
Love that show! So, let the speculation begin, who is the new Stig in real life?
BTW, who ended up being the latest Stig that this one is replacing?

Re: The new Stig
Hi Mike,
There was a big brew-ha-ha over here when the Stig decided he was going to write a book (hence the reference in the video to it not being a good idea).
Ben Collins is the ex Stig's name;

Re: The new Stig
No comments on the new USA version of Top Gear? Same format as the BBC version, and we get our own "Stig".

Agree and I can't stand the hosts, although the Viper vs. civil AH-1 was great to see as a longtime Cobra fan.

Re: The new Stig
Oh gawd, there's a USA version too? I wonder if it's as bad as the Australian one.
I don't like the hosts of the Aussie one much, but at least they're more bearable than that c*ck Clarkson

Re: The new Stig
Why do you think they give you Neighbours and Home and Away all day everyday, it's because nobody watches that rubbish down here and they have to play it somewhere where the director can't be stoned and rocked, lolYou guys give us that sh*t Neighbours and Home and Away all day everyday and you dare moan about Clarkson
