mellow65 Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 i wish these rally guys would just stop dieing, makes me a little fearful to start. I guess that kind of smashes my hopes of ever meeting him. He will be missed, I always enjoyed watching his old videos, that guy was nuts in a car, hope I'm that crazy in a car someday. :(:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffbradford Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 http://www.colinmcrae.com/ There haven't been many people that I've really looked up to in admiration, but Colin Mcrae was definitely my hero. I've only watched him on TV, but I could see that not only was he immensely talented, but a good sportsman, and motivator to many. I'm going to have to dig out my tapes and DVDs this week as well as my old PS1 Collin Mcrae Rally, just to hear his voice encourage me during the driving school! You will never be forgotten Colin. (and I'm hoping for an all day Colin Mcrae marathon on Speed TV! :cool: ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beataru Posted September 19, 2007 Share Posted September 19, 2007 Is any channel going to do something for him, like show how FREAKING BAD rump roast he was (especiall when he was racing for us)... I bet if speedvision was still around, it would have been all over it. Speedchanel better get their act straight!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
