If this gets out Stig MKII may be dropped costing him his 'great job'...
I think its really obvious who the stig is
Why of course... it is NickT !
:wink:
Oh, "Stig".
I thought you said "Stick".
I definately don't look like a stick !
Maybe a stick that is big, round and very handsome.
A sort of stick that likes pies & pasties at car shows and enjoys to quaff the odd bottled beer after a very tasty curry.

Can you ever be sure who The Stig is? For all we know, I could be a different person in every episode ... For example, when they test a supercar, maybe the owner doesn't want his car to be driven by anyone else? It's very easy then to put the owner in the white overall and helmet and call him The Stig. No one would know, hey? (well, except maybe when that person looks like The Stig's American cousin ... :lol: )
As I understand it The Stig is The Stig most of the time. However if a car manufacture has a rare car that they dont want a stranger to drive or they want to make sure it's not trashed then they dress up there own test driver as The Stig.
You can tell in the driving style. Sometimes it's very aggressive and sometime not and sometimes the lines taken around the track are different. A good driver will take the same line every time unless there racing
Apparently, the old stig was Perry McCarthy and the current one is Ben Collins.
