The STIG has been replaced. Who is the new STIG?

I generally have a deep dislike for tabloids, but I do admit that, in this particular case, their media frenzy has been put to (some) good use.

Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz on Top Gear

On the last episode of the world’s best car TV show (and my personal all time favorite), Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz made an appearance on the set. Of course, they didn’t drive a Veyron or another supercar, but were challenged to tear the tarmac in the Top Gear reasonably priced car. How did it [...]
