As any viewers of Sunday’s show will appreciate, Jeremy’s favourite new pickup, the Hennessey VelociRaptor, is not subtle.
Instead, it’s loud, it’s yellow, it’s the size of a Nimitz-Class aircraft-carrier, and thanks to some knobbly tyres, it’s more than capable of scaling literally anything put before it. Including Canadian mountains.
Oh, and it’s pretty powerful, too. 623bhp powerful. And a certain tame racing driving racer wouldn’t let it leave the Top Gear studio before grabbing the keys for one hot, and occasionally sideways, lap around the TG track.

Did they ever say who the Stig actually was?
I know they said it was Michael Schumacher, but Ferrari wouldn't let anyone else drive his FXX, so he did it as the Stig.

They have revealed two of them, but they are fired when they are revealed.
The current one is still a "secret"

The current theory is there are multiples.
Sabine smidt for one.
Can't tell if it's a man or a woman when they only show the helmet sometimes.

Ben Collins.
It is a secret that is known by a lot of people, but revealing the Stig is kind of like saying Santa is not real. The theories are better than the real story.
Also, there is a lot of belief that there are multiple people playing the part just due to logistics.

Schmidt? I've heard that, too.

Obviously not in this one... but in Series 7-10 approx.

The identity of the original "Black" Stig, Perry McCarthy, was exposed by a Sunday newspaper in January 2003, and confirmed by McCarthy later that year. The black-suited Stig was subsequently "killed off" that October in the series 3 premiere, and replaced in the following episode by a new White Stig who lasted through to the end of series 15. In series 13, the show jokingly unmasked the Stig as seven-time world champion F1 driver Michael Schumacher. In the hiatus following series 15, racing driver Ben Collins was revealed to be the Stig in a court battle over Collins' impending autobiography, titled The Man in the White Suit. In series 16, debuting in December 2010, Collins was replaced by a second White Stig, whose identity has so far remained secret.

Anybody that modifies any car at all is a douche. Haven't you heard?

Sick of that myth.
5k worth of Rigid is easily outperformed by 500$ worth of HID.
LED is for up close, side lighting, and reverse lights. HID is to see everything from up close to miles away.
