Stig and 370Z Secret Lap

I'm assuming they filmed it so they could make a joke about him being confused by the syncrorev but decided not to use it for the show.

Dude what dont you get, you werent looking at a finished product, it was at the same track, same effects, you can even see the camera at the end where they finish each lap and he looks over at the camera.

It was either them setting up to make a joke about the rev match or you were witnessing his very first lap and he's just getting settled. Geez, REALLY, not that hard to believe AT ALL.

Watch all the episodes, there is tons of footage where you can hear him overly spinning the tires and hitting the rev limiter etc etc etc etc etc.

Also, think EVO's or STi's, alot of them have controls around the shifter for all sorts of gadgetry, and it looks like he was just trying to make sure he's settled in with all that. You act like this guy will run the first lap with every car he touches perfectly.

But then again, you sound like you believe everything Mr. Clarkson says about the super human Stig. Remember he's not Chuck Norris.
