    Amazing how Colin is talking away so casually while throwing the Subaru around those corners, such an amazing man, still can’t believe he’s not with us anymore.

    I got to talk to him in the NEC exhibition centre back in the 1988s, and what a decent bloke he was.
    There was none of that, i am too busy to talk to you stuff, just a pleasant down to earth Scottish lad, who obviously was born to drive a rally car fast.
    Its always a shame when someone so young and talented dies early, but i certainly have fond memories of those few minutes talking to him.

  • @Mornys
    @Mornys 13 років тому +4

    Finns used to jokingly call him Kilin-Colin as he so often seemed to crash or roll his car over. Kilinkolin is a kind of description of a sound hard objects make when they fall on hard surface or hit eachothers, like when kettles bang against eachother or something like that.
    He was a respected driver though, and everybody seemed to love him. He will be remembered.

    • @tommack8650

    I'm lucky enough to currently own an Impreza WRX and previously I owned a 911, both of which (their idiosyncrasies aside) are excellent cars in my opinion. McRae drives 'em both like a true pro. I miss seeing him on the WRC, every time I let one of my friends drive my Impreza I say ,"no Colin McRae-esque driving!" McRae was certainly a legend, RIP!
