Driving with the Stig

I was just looking through Enrico's pages and came across a story I sent him a few months back, so thought I'd post a link to it.

A while back I was fortunate enough to go to a hospitality event at Lelystad, where they have skid pan and track facilities. I was taught how to control the Ghibli in slippery conditions and had lots of time to practice controlling the car in opposite lock on the circular skid track they have there.

But the highlight of the event was being a passenger to BBC Top Gear's famous driver, the Stig. He certainly put my driving skills into perspective!
