Perry McCarthy on life as 'The Stig!'
He's raced in Formula One, competed in the legendary Le Mans 24 hours and battled for honours at Sebring, but in the career of Perry McCarthy – dubbed by some as 'the world's unluckiest driver' – one thing must surely stand head and shoulders above the rest.
And that thing? Taking on the role of the mysterious 'Stig' on popular British motoring show Top Gear.
Crash.net took the chance to catch up with Perry recently, to talk about life as the 'Stig' and find out just how easy it is trying to teach a celebrity to become a race driver…
Crash.net:
Perry, alongside your long career in motorsport, you had another famous role as 'The Stig' on Top Gear - I just wondered what it was like to have that role.

He is the caveman from the book "Stig of the dump" written by Clive King - first published in 1963.
Stig of the dump is about an unforgettable friendship between Stig and Barney who together have the most extraordinary adventures ever.
The book is a timeless classic

If you're talking about top gear, his name is Perry McCarthy. He's raced in Formula One, competed in the legendary Le Mans 24 hours and battled for honours at Sebring. He's been dubbed the "The worlds unluckiest driver".
If you're talking about the book, its Stig of the dump... a stiganopithicus.

somebody asks this a minimum of as quickly as each and every week! the easy answer is; no-one's asserting. as quickly as upon a time there replaced right into a Stig, and his call replaced into Perry McCarthy. He wasn't meant to tell everyone he replaced into the Stig, yet he did, so they strapped him right into a Nitrous-assisted Jaguar XJS and released him off HMS Illustrious. For the subsequent series, they got here upon yet another Stig, yet this one wore white extremely of black, and that they observed that he replaced into good. They advised him to no longer tell everyone that he replaced into the Stig, and being petrified of no longer something yet steam catapults, he hasn't!
