Aussie Stig! Who Is It?

[85URK]

Hey guys,

I just finished watching top gear oz again tonight, and it made me start thinking who was the aussie stig?

some rumours i have read, say that he isnt very tall from the footage, and some have said he seemed a little over weight in the first few episodes, also that it might have been a fill in for the first few till they found somebody to do it fulltime.

anyway some have said russell ingall?

also read rick bates maybe?

I have no idea but if anybody has some evidence or has seen any, post up links etc in here. eventually somebody will have to find out who it is!

Cheers

i think the show is actually getting better, cant wait to see the gtr next week.. it better be a good story or thats the end of me trying to watch it.

i think it might be rusty.. the way the "stig" if you can call him that, his driving position reminds me of rusty.. i dont know of anyone else that sits like that.. long shot but its my 2c anyway..

as for skaife... well... some say he likes to cry alot.

[85URK]

yea the show is sort of gradually getting better, but some of the stuff there doing isnt even laugh worthy. but they are getting alittle better over all, but will never be the UK guys. but i think they are slowly finding there feet and making there own way.

I was thinking ingall aswell. he's not too tall, and isnt exactly skinny like some other racers. but yeah, somebody out there has to have some solid evidence. lol

[Bakes]

Its John Howard.

[BoyWhoCriedWolf]

The stance, the crossed arms, its Ingall all over.

[grigor]

Should be Kenny.

The show's crap.

[342Four]

TGA is getting better - finding there feet, and if they stopped trying to copy UK TG then it would be better

Stig - short so not Skaife

i reckon Bargs or Rusty

[GTS4WD]

I wouldnt call him a terrible driver,

but comes no where near the UK stig.

+1 for the enforcer!

my mate works for defecne and he said that once of the guys on the defence forums, saw john bowe walking around a race circut in a full white suit. he then proceeded to thrash a crapload of different cars, and then did an interview without taking his helmet off.

he told me this before the show had aired...and suprise he then proceeded to thrash a bunch of cars.

but eh...

who cares...from what ive read the uk one is a bunch off diff people not jsut the one.
