Default 944 in the latest season of Top Gear

Looks like a 944 is going to be featured in some capacity in the new season of Top Gear that started today. Saw a shot of it racing in the snow and Clarkson was standing behind it yelling "I've mended something!" More details as the story develops =)

0.00% chance of that. As if Schumacher would do test drives for a living! I'm pretty sure there is no ONE Stig at this point.

yeah... the only way to see the current episodes is to download them via bittorrent from sites like finalgear.com.

That FXX was freaking awesome. Amazing lap time!

Made my sunday after a rather dull British GP and not a great result for Jenson Button.
Ben Collins I think is suspected to be one of the Stigs as his name was on the health and safety report of Richard Hammond's crash.
