The world’s most famous tame racing driver had a go on a very yellow Hennessey VelociRaptor 600 on the also famous Top Gear test track.
The wound is still fresh for most of the Top Gear fans after BBC’s decision not to renew the contract of Jeremy Clarkson for reasons will all have read or heard, but the show must go on for those left behind. Enter the Stig.
The VelociRaptor’s supercharger whine may be one of the most enjoyable mechanical sounds you can hear but it can’t overcome the absence of Clarkson’s voice-over, which makes this video equally entertaining and nostalgic.
On the one hand you have an awesome American muscle truck powersliding on a wet track and on the other, you have a very strong indication of how Top Gear will never be the same without Clarkson around.
