VERY popular.

I'll admit - I live in the land of pickup trucks and country music. I have the theme as my ring tone. It works well as a ring tone. When it rings in public I get a lot of smiles and thumbs up. Wife bought me a "I am the Stig" tshirt last Christmas. When I wear it I get LOTS of feedback.

Non-car people here love it because of the humour and for the cars they have never heard of. I love it because it is different from all the CRAP on SpeedTV.

It is BBC Canada and BBC America's #1 show followed by Survivors. From OUR eyes it's brilliant. NO detractors yet. You guys have it easy there...motorsport is everywhere and easily accessed. Print, media, events, venues...
