Just met Christian Horner (red bull team captain)...not name dropping at all :lol:
their car is allmost as fast as my 944 :lol: :lol:

0-60 in 2 sec's
0-100 under 4 sec's
0-100-0 5.5 sec's

Not bad :D
..........the car creates so much down force at 100mph it will drive inverted.........

Aparantly Seb Vettel wanted to find out who the stig was when he broke the lap record on Saturday.....they never gave up his identity .....all he could discover was he's a British male........

now if could just meet Amanda Holden life would be complete :lol:

Jezza did say it was "old Stig" anyway, so that's easy - Ben Collins.

Maybe by 'old stig' they mean black Stig - Perry McCarthy

I don’t recall them saying anything about an ‘old Stig’ on Sunday’s show apart from the comment when Clarkson realised it was Ben Collins’ lap time on the F1 leaderboard and threw it away. “That was Sacked Stig, we’ll get rid of that!”

He's not at the pub tonight, he's 'round here watching Life of Brian, and "he can't come out, he's been a naughty boy"
