The STIQ Reveals Himself ! ! ! !

[WingZr0]

Tha STIG takes off his mask in the the tenth season premere of Top Gear today on the BBC! I wasn't expecting that when i was watching it today but it happened. Get online and watch it if you missed it and post a YouTube link here if you can for others to see it.

I know I saw it too...completely took me by surprise. Do you think they'll replace him with someone else now that Shuie is going back to F1?

Isn't that STIG rather than STIQ?

Totally SiC huh? ! So thats why he did it, he's going back then.

Think your right, can't change the title though. And thanks Jim for the link

BTW, LOVED the way he handled that Yellow Ascari, the one that took out the top spot for fastest time. And the Black Zonda that beat the Vyrons' time was gold too!

He's not THE Stig. He only drove the Ferrari on this episode. Remember that Top Gear as seen "new" in the US already aired a long time ago in the UK. This has been discussed over and over on the internet and it was revealed that MS only did it for this special car.

Jeff, get real. EVERYBODY knows that the US is the center of the known universe, and things don't actually happen until we see them in this country. That's why we KNOW people are lying about 76 260Zs, etc.

[Jeff G 78]

You are lying Steve! The 260 was only sold in 1974. I refuse to believe anything else. I am putting my hands over my ears now and screaming "laa laa laa laa laa laa laa laa"

[wbsupernatural]

Agree with Jeff, ppl believed that he was there for his special FXX. Now the question is, who is Fat Stig? The US cousin of the Stig ...

From rumors in the pro racing community - there is no one Stig. Top Gear uses a number of pro drivers (mostly BTCC guys) as they are available based on the show's shooting schedule. If you watch the episodes where they bring in the BTCC drivers to race things like busses and motorhomes you'll see some of the Stigs.
