Sagaris' Stig lap time

[antonyj]

Just for a bit of fun, what do we reckon the Saggy will do in the hands of stig?

Just checked the TP site and the T350C did 1.27.5.

Should beat that shouldnt it???????????

[900T-R]

Of course, but it will be interesting to see by how much it beats last month's Tuscan 2 that did 1'24"8.

The Koenigsegg CC8S, Lambo Murcielago and Pagani Zonda are all in the high 1'23"s, but these are all times from the days of the old Stig.

I'll do a WAG and say 1'22"7 .

H'm.

The more I think about it, and the more I compare the lap times, I am sure that Tuscan 2 had the 4 litre S engine in it!

Who is Stig II ?

And did Stig I find summit else to do or was he "pushed" ?

Just done a quick search of these hallowed forums, and the most likely explanation I can find is....

"....the stig is a mixture of drivers so they hide their faces. If you look at the last series you could see different driving styles etc between different weeks."

Sound pretty feasible?

[Mustang Baz]

Quite telling that 2 of the top 3 "normal" cars (i.e, excluding £150k+ supercars) in the lap times to date are TVR's

Perry McCarthy (Stig 1) was pushed, from what I undersand couldn't keep it quiet any longer and put this on his book :



That is why they made such a big thing of changing stig over and killing Stig 1 off. If it was amicable then they would have just put new driver in black suit.
