Ok sorry, I closed that because someway I thought the question was about the old Stigg and we already had tons of discussions about that.. but thanks to Kangaroo I realised maybe he wanted to ask about the new one..
Next time maybe a better topic subject or some more words in the post will help everybody...

Story goes that the New Stig = the Old Stig.
Had something 2 do with a contract which expired. The new contract, alledgedly, allows Perry to do some presenting. But than again I could be totally wrong :roll:

I don`t think that new stig is old stig.It seems that the new one is littel bit quicker. Anyway it bloody hard to guess because in GB there are tons of fast drivers.

Yep, in the dry. Normally the difference between a wet and a dry lap is about 4 to 5 seconds. So 7 seconds is quite a lot. And with the first murciƩlago lap time wasn't really that wet...

Don't forget the murcielago is AWD so it should perform pretty well in the wet.
