Don't we all know who The Stig is? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifrtlC4NTys ;)

It's actually a shame they didn't let the original black Stig speak. He was played by Perry McCarthy, who should have been a stand up comedian instead of a race car driver. His book Flat Out, Flat Broke is easily the funniest racing book I've ever read.

so what do you do if you are in front wheel drive car and your realize that you are coming into a turn too fast Stiggy?:03:
You see what you're about to hit coming towards you, as opposed to a RWD car where you see the road you just came from going away from you. ;)

Diesel technology has advanced so much and probably has room for more advancement. It is also my understanding that it is easier/cheaper to convert oil shale into Diesel Oil then it is to convert it in to MoGas.

The more I read about Diesels the more I admire the technology.:D

Some Korean car makers have made hybrid LPG cars. Now I would consider getting one of them! $10 to fill the tank!:DL
