Since the season of Top Gear ended some time ago we would like to discuss the laptimes the Stig put on the board during the last seasons of Top Gear at BBC2. The biggest surprise was the Ascari KZ1 putting a top 10 time on the clock! Altogether it’s a great list but there’s one important car missing, the Bugatti Veyron. Hopefully the stig will get his chances with the Bugatti in the next series until then all we can do is guess…
Feel free to comment on your biggest surprise and disappointment in the list.

biggest surprise is the Ariel Atom, if you speak in terms of… the average costs of top 10 performance cars, the ariel only costs like 35000 pound (which is 1/30 of the costs of an enzo)
Great Job on the blog!
The atom is an impressive car 500kg and 300bhp = 600bhp/ton so not a surprise if you look at the figgures, but it is little less practical than the enzo etc(they have a body shell so you stay dry:)). As for veyron was shame that the only one they could get there hands on after the italy to england race was a enginless model. But what i want to know is why didn’t they put it on before the stig took it back to germany????
I think you may find that the stig has done a lap in the Veyron, and it will appear in the new season, they needed to keep a guaranteed crowd pleaser for the new season just in case. But hey I may be wrong ;)
BIGGEST SUPRISE: The DB5 got dead last place…oh wait thats not a suprise at all. Aston Martin = Ford Fiesta
What about the Aston Martin Vanquish S.
BIGGEST SUPRISE: Andy = Idiot…oh wait thats not a suprise at all.
