aussief1 4 Report post Posted January 20, 2009 Weird feeling working out who he actually is, there is no more mystique surrounding it all.

Insider 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2009 All Top Gear have to do is say they have hired a new Stig. We would be none the wiser and the intrigue continues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Medilloni 6 Report post Posted January 20, 2009 This story (about Ben) was doing the rounds two years ago. He is not The Stig. Edit: I know who he is, this is one of the reasons why I can't show my true self. With great power comes great balls of fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rainmaster 7 Report post Posted January 20, 2009 Old news Yeah, I think it is Ben Collins, as he was named in the report on Richard Hammond's crash as doing some 'stunt driving' for the show, or something similar. I think Ben Collins is the 'regular' Stig but for certain specialist challenges they obviously bring someone else in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
