They could use the chick from Fifth gear. She's quick.. on a bike too.

It's been well known in the UK for years who the stig was. He has also appeared as Ben Collins several times on various things on Top Gear. I can't see what all the fuss is about..... Mind you TG is much bigger now than when they had old Black Stig so it's a big story "outing" him.

And now what is to top them doing some shit stunt, kill him then put him back in different leathers? Heck what is to stop them putting a different driver every week in the suit?

Comparable times maybe!!! Granted, as you point out, we wouldn't know, but i'm pretty sure manufacturers would throw their toys out of the pram wouldn't send the factory toys to TG...

True. It just wouldn't be the same. Some say he's Ben Collins, all i know is, he's called The Stig

Yeah, but she is seriously insane. She gets these insane giggles when she's driving fast, and gets those crazy eyes when she looks in the rear vision mirror. She scares me a little...
