So Wednesday was the Top Gear Festival Media Launch at the spectactular Dezzi Raceway in Port Shepstone. I was there as a service provider to supply technical for the speeches and play background music for the event. Lots of local celebrities and media were either flown in or driven up to the venue in Supercars to name a Ferrari 458, 308 GTO and numerous Porsches from the Porsche club. This was done in typical Top Gear style.

 

Celebrities and media were wined and dined and treated to Stig Rides in various Mercedes Benz cars from SL 63 to C63 and Drifting rides in Dezzo Skyline drifting cars. As the day started to wind down it was almost to time to pack and leave and was chatting to my ex colleagues at BE Festivals when I was offered a Stig Ride.

 

We got prepped and waited like two schoolboys about to go for their first car ride ever. The Mercedes Benz C63 was next in line and we got in and awaited for the Stig to come back from his previous ride. He got we greeted him and he didnt get back. :eek: ( Not supposed to talk to us )

 

The ride was totally insane he had that C63 going more sideways than straight. I had this constant smile on my face the entire 3min ride. Words cannot comprehend the emotions and joy that i had experienced on the ride. It was surreal and something i will never forget.

 

The :ph34r: Stig is a damn good driver !!!
