Servius:

One of my other likes other than CDs that is. Is a british show called Top Gear and I had the pleasure of being Paparazi a few weeks ago when they drove into town… and after Talking with James May (wonderful man) he agreed to pose with my daughter. And yes I am the person responsible for the online teaser for an episode of the new show.

Thommy H:

He’s obviously sent her to sleep by going on and on about Aston Martins or something.

Ghrask Dragh:

:smiley: great pic!

Nice to hear he’s a good bloke, always seemed to be, did you find out who The Stig really is :smiley: :smiley:

Thommy H:

Some say he can guess the range on a stone thrower from the next room, and some say he once routed a unit of frenzied Chaos Knights with nothing but a single rank of Gnoblars.

All we know is…he’s called The Stig.

Servius:

did you find out who The Stig really is  
Um.. actually yes, by accident. I know 2 of the crew from when I was an audience member in Series 6. and we got to talking catching up and such and they asked me to carry a bag.. well the bag was half open and low in behold the white Shoen helmet. then later a stout blond haired german man goes into that bag and grabs his cigarettes. and all the while wearing a Team Italia Polo and talking to Clarkson about problems with the ABS they should expect at the Flats (they are doing another american car challenge) when I asked my friend Neville took me to the producer and he told me that he was but that I cant give his name out.. He was an ok guy not very good english but I speak german so it wasn't an issue. All in all everyone was good.. Also having met the stig in his getup when i was in the audience.. this is not the same guy.. the last one was 4 inches shorter at least.

Almost forgot to mention when I was with all 3, I made this comment:
Me: So Richard, you drive a Porsche 911 as your daily correct?
Hammond: A turbo actually.
Me: Ok, well thats a Porsche. and we all know about Porsche drivers.
Clarkson: He just hit that one on the Head, mate. "laughs"
Me: And Jeremy, You drive a Lambo Gallardo Spider, right?
Clarkson: Well, not actually. I drive the Mercedes.
Me: Wait the Mercedes?? Your Wife's car?
Clarkson: Looks at his feet and has a disappointed look on his face.
Hammond & May: Both have a quick chuckle
Me: May, I come to you and you drive a Fiat Panda.
May: Yes sir.
Me: So out of the 3 of you, one drives rubbish, one drives the Wifie's, and only one has the sense to own a proper city car.
Clarkson: begins to explain how the mercedes is actually his as he bought it for his wife
Hammond: starts to mention one of the 911 episodes as example. and May just laughs.

By the way.. May is my favorite Presenter.

Thommy H:

Oh my God! I can’t believe you know who The Stig is. I’m strangely jealous.

Servius:

if i am right he is only one of the stigs… my theory has always been that the stig isnt one or even 10 people… it may just be the driver they are able to get. the reason the white stig got fired from the job in the first place was that he wasnt always available when they needed him.

cornixt:

Is it the same Stig who admitted who he was on a Dutch interview?

Very cool meeting all three and then taking the piss out of them. I’m still waiting for the last series to be broadcast in the US, but we should have US version soon too. The main presenter, Adam Corolla is very funny and fits the Clarkson role very well. He was pretty surprised that they had to turn away hundreds of people who wanted to be in the audience, for a pilot of the show that might not even be shown on tv.

AGPO:

What happened to the Balck Stig again?

11

Thommy H:

Didn’t he fall off an aircraft carrier and drown?

zorn sabretooth:
