Spoiler: Stig revealed.

Finalgear.com has suspected for about a year. Guess it is official now.

not much of a surprise...I still wonder if they always use the same stig if the normal one is unavailable.

As long as they keep saying "all we know is, he's called the sitg" then I'm still good.

That is the great thing about a disguised stunt driver-- if he asks for more money, you fire him and hire somebody else under the helmet! Known as the "blue man group" phenomenon.

I am pretty sure there isn't a Stig, if you catch my drift...

...and excuse the pun.

I thing there are several of them.

There was a photo a while back of Damon Hill dressed as The Stig talking with Tony Blair.
