The Stig gets his kit off and reveals how he came to be Top Gears iconic racing driver and so much more – including what its like to thrash an Aston Martin DBS, train for the Army and face the terror of Jeremy Clarksons underwear… The Stig gets his kit off and reveals how he came to be Top Gears iconic racing driver and so much more – including what its like to thrash an Aston Martin DBS, train for the Army and face the terror of Jeremy Clarksons underwear… When the Black Stig disappeared off the end of an aircraft carrier in 2003, we were introduced to The White Stig. Faster. Stranger. Harder to keep clean. And ever since, millions have wondered – who is The Man in the White Suit? Theyre about to find out. Ben Collins caught the car the bug young, kicking his dads boss in the balls for not giving him a company Jag. This was the attitude that eventually led him to spend seven years sharing a cabin with Jeremy Clarksons underwear, James Mays PhD thesis and Richard Hammonds hairspray. Because he is The Stig. Now he tells all about life inside the iconic white helmet. What its like to guide a blind ex-RAF officer around the Top Gear track; pit a drug dealers Mitsubishi Evo against a Trojan tank; set a Vauxhall Monara against Chloe the dancing Ninja; and race double-decker Routemasters against bendy buses. Not to mention all the inside stuff on how the shows amazing driving sequences are made. He also reveals how he got to be there – setting a Dunsfold lap time faster than Michael Schumachers. Breaking records with the best of the best at Daytona and Le Mans. Its an awesome story, told by an amazing man.
