from the article:

Good news if you haven't had your fill of Stigate just yet: the world's ex-famous tame racing driver will show up on this week's 60 Minutes. According to CBS, host Steve Croft spent some time across the pond in an attempt to get a little closer to both the man in white and Top Gear. Croft even strapped into a Chevrolet Camaro SS for a little one-on-one time with the Stig himself. Unfortunately, The Stig didn't turn out to be the quote machine the CBS producers had hoped.

Judging by the short trailer for the piece, it looks like Croft also spent some time with a few of the more talkative people involved in putting the show together, including Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond and executive producer Andy Wilman. The show airs this Sunday, October 24 at 7 p.m. EST. Hit the jump for a look at the teaser.


I will probably DVR this and check it out when I get a chance. I saw the commercial for it last night. Anyone else interested?

I don't know, but I have a feeling it's the same as the correlation between Germans and European conquest.

I watched it. It was great. Not as great as Top Gear itself of course but it was nice to get some of the background that you either don't get, or that just gets lost in the midst of all that awesomeness that is the show.
