Chaps,

That great hippocrite of newspapers, the Daily Snail, had a full page item on it, and also blew the Stig's cover - as Perry McCarthy (as mentioned elsewhere in these pages!)

Same answer from two sources!!

was at topgear yesterday (filming) and they were taking thje wee out of the paper all day too!!

Did you know jeremy clarksons wife built a cateringvan? (she then sold it for a lotus elise grrrr)

they have a new 'top speed' car on the track, i won't tell you how it did in the lap times though. i also got to see the 2005 aston martin v8 vantage, and heard it running!!

Neil Morressy is on the show (can't spell) which was quite funny.

Tried asking about the stig. No one would confirm or denie Perry McCarthy, my girlfriend spoke to clarkson who said he'd only found out who it was a couple of weeks ago. he also said the press get it wrong, but wouldn't say why.

I guess we'll still be waiting to find out.

I'll wait and see the show, to be aired this sunday then let you know if they included any footage of me in the final edit!

Ned.

Man, I love that show!! I didn't miss a episode when I was there! Wish we had something like that here, all we have is 'Motoring 2003' and they do lame slalom tests and figuger thats enough on the performance side :/

They don't want you to start enjoying your motoring or you will be like the rest of us independent thinkers.

It has to be the one wearing glasses

When they were on about the swedish sports cars lap times they seem to have taken off the times of the radical and xtr2. Does anybody know why?

Cheers

Jim

Maybe it's because they're not 'proper' cars....

Top Gear (Clarkson) have some funny ideas about things...


Metal Hippy - 22/6/03 at 10:58 PM

That and the fact the board is filling up a bit and couldn't be arsed moving them down to make space...


ned - 23/6/03 at 09:28 AM

this is me:




I asked about where the radicals thime was and the short presenter said they were putting it on a different board for trackday cars or something but hadn't done it yet/had forgotten about it.

Were you looking at the bird in the white top. How tall was she?.

yours, Pete.


ned - 23/6/03 at 11:10 AM

Pete,

I was probably glancing at a monitor or one of the plasma screens. My girlfriend is beside me (though out of shot/camera shy?#!)
