While Star Wars did well in the rest of the USA, audiences in the deep south didn't respond to it. As a result, in that region it was renamed Car Wars and did quite well at the box office.
After being outed as the Black Stig, Perry McCarthy went just a little rogue.
Some say it was his use of "The Force" that delivered such a crap version of Top Gear to Australian TV.
Dear diary,
I alway get dark vibes when driving from Freo to Mandurah. Those tree-less new suburbs give me the creeps and I don't know why. At first I thought it was my soul screaming that I missed the turnoff to Woodies. ![]()
But this photo proves the whole region belongs to the dark side.

All the fellas at the Star Wars convention thought Dexter was the coolest........but really he was still just a 43 y/o virgin living with his Mum.
Quentin heard you needed to be like Will Smith - famous, instantly recognisable, black, and have a sports car - to pull chicks....... yet still he had no luck
Darth was about 45 when it occurred to him to hide his aging visage behind a mysterious mask and only take it off in the dark. "The chicks will never know" he thought. Unfortunately, no matter what he was saying his voice always sounded like an obscene phone call so he had to resort to writing notes. He kept a wad of handy pickup lines in the glove box. He would cruise the boulevard at night and throw wadded up notes at likely prospects. He didn't have much luck with the girls but he did get booked for littering. Then one day he ran into George Lucas.
C3PO and R2D2 came in very handy as spare parts for the roadster.
oh my goodness my lord, turn left at the next lights.
Never really taking a fancy to outer space and those silly laser swords, Darth's lesser known twin brother Garth had a passion second to none for customised hotrods.
[Edit - that was crap even by my standards]
Darth desperately wanted to Leia but knew if she didn't find him attractive he would be going Hans Solo again.
