Taken from another Forum: -
Its Julian Bailey , watch on the 22nd as one of our cars is on .
One of our lads took it for filming for the day and whipped Julians's track time easily .
All the camera shots of the car sliding about is our driver as Julian couldnt get it to slide about at all .
Its a vodka kick sponsored mitsubishi lancer evolution 7 rally car. Stickered up to the max with multicoloured vk graphics.
Keep your eye out on bits falling off , as I was a bit pissed to say the least when we built the thing and had very little sleep due to the car needing to be finished on time for the world rally championship.
I wanted to go down on the day of filming as jeremy clarkson wanted to meet me (hehe) , but work was too demanding at the time , so I had to let him down and one of the lads took it.
Who knows?????

Jenson Button according to Honest John - see http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/forum/post/index.htm?f=2&t=8414
Apparently his identity cannot be revealed for contractual reasons which could be true. I do find it odd though that he would have the time or inclination to come to the UK each week for a tv show. Also for tax reasons I guess Jenson would want to limit the number of days he is in the UK.

Jenson Button is nearly 6 ft which blows my theory...!
I suspect it's someone whose done some circuit driving or maybe an instructor, however he or she is not a "name" that everyone knows.

So far we all seem to think it's:
Damon Hill
Julian Bailey
Johnny Herbet
Dave Clark
Jenson Button
Alain Menu
Stig Blomqvist
Mark Blundell
Keith Chegwin
Dave Benson
Tiff Needell
Perry McCarthy
Simon De Banke (
)
Jason Plato
Andy Priaulx
Jeffery Archer
Nicky Grist
Ivan Muller
Sterling Moss
Michael Schumacher
Jean Alesi
So i think it's safe to say we haven't got a clue...but keep guessing

Mark Kwiatkowski - Who said it was Mark Blundell?????
Met the bloke plenty of times and it's certainly not him!
Mark's a hell of a lot bigger than the Stig. Build like a brick s**t house as well.
