anyone read the the mail today? its got a report about some git moaning that his jag le man car was thrashed about for a top gear programme and they cause "x" amount of damage to it.

Well, the paper actually says " the car was driven away by 'The Stig', otherwise known as racing driver Perry McCarthy."

Hhmmmmmmm, wish I had that crap a life in motorsports.....

 

And he can drive!!

 

Matty.

allegedly toasted the tyres, bent a driveshaft and rogered the clutch doing max rpm standing starts. Bl00dy sacriledge on an old timer jag like that!

 

but then again tp gear give back all their test cars with no tread on the tyres or meat on the clutch! Its funny how cars you dont own can be made to really really perform

 

And I thought the stig was Nigel Mansell too!

There is no way Mansell could fit in anything but a truck now.

 

It couldnt have been any one really famous, as if is it was Hill or Mansell or some one like that they wouldn't be able to keep it a secret. It had to be some one whos face wasnt known.

 

Stuart

I thought it was mr bean :( (im serious)

they mentioned him at lemans, it was a good laugh, because i dont think they meant to lol.

 

he was driving for Audi, so he cant be that bad.
