Default Colin McRae (1968-2007)

Rest in peace Colin, Johnny and the two unidentified persons who were in the helicopter...

You were one of the best drivers the racing world ever knew.
And your son Johnny left this world way too early, like you yourself.

Rally champion Colin McRae dies with son in helicopter crash

A Legend of the road

Man, that's horrible. It's been all over the news here in Australia. I feel bad for them all but especially his son.

That's not far from where I grew up and my parents still live.

Colin McRae is a Scottish Legend and will forever be remembered for his video games and his rally career.

Damn, that's some sad news. The premature passing of a true legend. Farewell, Colin.

Can't say I know much about rally racing, but those Codemasters games are fairly awesome. I think I'm going to start the PSX emu and the game now. Fare thee well..
