Did anybody watch Clarkson's Duel video? There was a scene where Clarkson and Stig were standing next to each other, and Stig looked almost as tall as Clarkson. I think that might really have been Michael Schumacker.

The 7-Series vs. AMG S-Class was fun to watch. Especially with Captain Slow freaking out in the back seat

Epic start to an epic season of an epic show. I particularly loved the part where Captain Slow crashes his Lamborghini Gallardo into that poor peasant's Dacia, and I also give props to Hammster for admitting that a manual transmission is pointless in a grand tourer.

That being said, if you want to just stream previous seasons and specials: http://www.topgearepisodesonline.com/

Enjoy.

And I'm fairly certain that the FinalGear torrents are completely legal. BBC would be just asking for rips by putting their shows on the iPlayer thingamabob... and besides, FinalGear has been doing it forever.

yeah it was pretty funny. no way that diesel exhuast in the cabin was real. lol IMO, it just makes the show look too scripted.

Clarkson is 6'5"

he's taller than most people by a fair bit...

and the Stig's helmet adds a good bit of stature.
