Paul Tan on the Automotive Industry
Top Gear has an interesting challenge here, it’s the trio against The Stig in a race to see who actually manages to start th race. What we have here is The Stig driving from Caterham’s factory to the destination which is a race track, while Jeremy, James and Richard attempt to build their Caterham kit car from scratch at the destination before The Stig arrives. Video after jump.

Stupid Clarkson … dropped the whole car off the jack stands!
I always wanted to ask: who is this stig anyway? He is like a stunt test driver of top gear but seriously, who is he?
seen the whole episode
Rexis:
The Stig's identity has never been revealed and is still the target of much speculation.
If you google around (google is your friend), the Stig has actually been played by several different people although I believe only one person has actually admitted to being it.
the old black stig was actually Damon Hill. and they 'kill' off the black stig in the episod where a Jag launched off a jet carrier.
the new white stig real identity is unknown.
Hahaha, funny ending, so in real we dont know whos the winner.
Did some wiki on The Stig instead, interesting reading.
I think they purposely made the police stop the stig in order to show that Clarkson and the gang can built the Caterham in just few hours.
haha, this is one nice way to build a car, hopefully they sell DIY Satria Gti
Haha, Jeremy's such a barbarian :p
Stupid Jeremy
