Colin McRae Killed IN Helicopter Crash
Even for those of us who onlt take a passing interest in motorsport Colin McRae was a well known name. 5 yr old son also in the helicopter. Sad news.

Re: Colin McRae Killed IN Helicopter Crash
Sad news, I used to follow his progress, was one of the best rally drivers ever in my opinion, there was a poll on here once asking who was the best and they never mentioned Colin for some reason
Edit - found it, THIS is the poll Last edited by K.S.H; 15-09-2007 at 22:06. Reason: Adding link to poll |

He was a brilliant driver, I saw him a few year ago in the World Rally Championships in Cyprus. Amazing! |

Re: Colin McRae Killed IN Helicopter Crash
This is getting all spooky now, his old boss who was in charge when he won the rally championship in 1995 has also just crash landed in a helicopter, he and his wife walked away unhurt.
