Question: It was this day in Rock History in 2000, this guy appeared as the Star in a Reasonably Priced Car on the BBC television program Top Gear. Who was it?

Answer: It was AC/DC singer Brian Johnson. His time of 1:45.9 tied him with Simon Cowell for the second fastest time. He was introduced by host Jeremy Clarkson as “a man who has sold more albums than The Beatles and I bet almost none of [the audience] have ever heard of him.”
