Discussion
Anyone watch the new top gear last night where they revealed the stig as Michael ShoeSmacker?
Loved that ferrari going round the track and it didnt just make top time it killed it! sounded sweet going round that track. Was good to see the highlights of whats coming up aswell some good episodes coming our way by the looks of it!

Must have Ferrari FXX 
It absolutely destroyed the lap record
truly an awesome machine. Schumacher gag was good too.
That car.. Mmm i want one! but for 1 million and have to ask ferrari to use it? wtf! Liked the comment about it looking like batman on a track was quite funny!

To be fair though, the FXX DID destroy the record, but then it was one of the worlds most talented drivers driving his own car, so it wouldn't surprise me if a chunk of that was down to the combination rather than the car...
Stig has Dark hair - Shoesmacker doesn't. Ergo it's not him
Plus of course when they changed from black stig to white stig, he was still racing F1.
It was good to have it back on again though, something good to watch on a Sunday night at last

Go you sherlock holmes! good lookout! yea is nice to have it back on then watched the space thing with james may straight afterwards which was pretty interestingStig has Dark hair - Shoesmacker doesn't. Ergo it's not him

How may laps did he do I wonder...Those Ceramic Brakes would take a few laps to get that bloody hot....love the glow of brakes...one of the best sights in motor sport... Mr Collins would have been a bit slower in the FXX I'm sure. No number plates, not getting over speed bumps will make it be taken off..also the caparo was quicker (1:10.6)...but that got chucked off due to the speed bump thing..and I bet the normal stig (Ben) was not driving that then and it was Phil Bennet in a white suit and Arai..

You are correctbut just asked him loads of f1 questions.. the pics were pretty good of him smashed after races LOL. The drink driving vid with the opera singers and the mud on the windscreen was a little weird!
