Let Top Gears Stig give your pride and joy the full beans around the test track?

Personally, as long as the car was covered i would love to know what time my car could do the lap in. I would even let them empty 2 full bottles in the process.

so called

Yes it would be a nice dvd keepsake, but like you say, as long as it was covered. You never know a few quiet words in Stigs ear and he may blow the engine so geting you a free rebuild. wink

Yea I think I would, it'd also be a good idea for a feature where you compare the cars of yesterday with the current crop.... oh hang on I think I'm mistaking TG for a proper motoring programme.

I suppose if they were all towing caravans or having to avoid rockets being fired by the Taliban then they'd be interested... ?

Fifth Gear might be interested though?

Now now Dave.
hippy Peace out man.
Lets not get started on how good or bad TG is.
I just want to see where my car would be placed on the board and what it would compare too.

Ideally a lap without gas and a lap with. I think for my car the difference would be huge. I would have to fit a decent set of brakes first tho rolleyes

Absolutely. I'd like the T350 to do mid 1:20s. T350 they had there did a 1:27 IIRC.

What would be the point if he's not 'allowed' to comment as he drives, at least TN or JP would say something sensible (even if it contains caveats about all the old chestnuts).

Having said that you'd still have to turn up with 100 cars just to let them try & find one that they thought was representative of the 'bunch'.... Unfortunately there are dogs & thoroughbreds in all the models (whatever the owners think of their P&J's or however much shine & bling they apply).
