The Stig? That's the power of the Chiron Super Sport. Still, it's better than his passenger. Bugatti's famous test driver and racing legend Andy Wallace accompanied Collins on the drive. Mind you, this is a man who actually drove the Super Sport beyond mph, but the perspective from the passenger seat is a bit different. Apparently, that's especially true when the Stig is behind the wheel, as Wallace "thanks" Collins for scaring the living daylights out of him.
It could've been some fun talk for the camera, but seeing how Wallace grips his seat belt later in the clip, we suspect there's some legitimate concern.
Then again, if we were in the passenger seat of a 1,hp car on a mountain road with the Stig behind the wheel, we'd be a bit concerned, too. Not Hammond-level scared, but certainly on edge.
Since leaving the show Collins has written an autobiography, managed a motorsports and engineering firm, and even dabbled in the growing field of electric car racing. Key complaints were the brakes, which had the ability to steer the car due to the sheer force of weight transfer, as well as unwieldy suspension.
Criticisms include horrendous fuel economy around town and equally bad performance when heading off-road. The fourth car on the list is another American model, the just superseded Dodge Charger not the new for model. These included the lack of door handles on the Sagaris, uncomfortable seats, harsh gear changes, poor handling and an assortment of useless aero aids that shook violently at speed.
