Well Dont forget guys the whole point of the stig is to not know who is doing the driving!! if you knew it would take something out of the character of the stig .... and the murcielago i dont believe would have had that much of a difference between stigs had they both been on the dry, however just from the driving ive seen in both i think that the new stig is a bit faster. Oversteer is cool looking but doesnt translate to fast track times. and someone made a pretty correct observation that the new stig doesnt oversteer as much.

Well, just because I feel obliged to be a little subjective, yes, I think the new Stig drives a touch better, albeit I've only seen 3 of his lap runs on the show.

Of course, that could have been because his tires stuck just a little better, or the wind was blowing in just the right direction in some turns, or the track was warm, or some fat bastard on the other side of the world rolled to the right instead of the left somewhere in Indonesia...it's just hard to tell

I guess the mystery is still unsolved...btw, i wonder how the new stigg listens to the music that he plays while driving the track, isn't that mask of his blocking most of the sound already?

Might just be me, but I think that the music is added during editing.
