3 years already? Jesus

RIP Colin, one of the greats.

Never has a truer sentence been spoken,

'Colin Mcrea, he was a hero'

 

[Graham]

This photo was taken by myself at WRC Spain a month after Colin passed, it was French spectators that had it perched at the side of the stage and sums his career up just beautifully

'He didn't do second place, he either came first, or else was sitting at the side of the road somewhere'

So hard to believe its already been 3 years. I have the DVD that Duke were filming the year he died, ive watched it many times but never gets any easier

Ive just started building a 1/24 scale model of his 1998 WRC Subaru Impreza, the last year he raced with Subaru, and personally my favourite shape of the Impreza. I know there will be a few sleepless nights put in to building it but ive always wanted a model of it and i think when you've built it yourself it means more.

If in doubt, flat out!

RIP Colin.

I still maintain that Colin was the most spectacular driver ever

Without doubt, and he came across as a genuine rally fan and gentleman when he came to donegal.

RIP

3 years already, where does the time go. Colin was and always will be an absolute legend

 

[CarbonKa]

3 years we've been poorer for the loss of one of motorsports best and most spectacular ambassadors.
RIP, gone but never forgotten.

[Bilal]

3 Years flip time flys really quick, Miss watching him a lot when im following the wrc. RIP

Richard Burns is another I think about a lot and miss watching on the wrc, passed away 5 years this Nov due to a tumour. He was only 34 too, still pretty young. RIP

 

[Graham]

just seen this on NG's facebook and thought it was worth a post:

 

[Arfur]

The man was simply Outstanding !!!!!!
I still get goosebumps watching his incar footage , only one word 'Awesome'
No one will ever get close to what Colin was.
Rallying has never been the same for me .

Wow great video Graham, the tears were rolling down my face after about a minute as that brought back so many good memories, Colin and Richard Burns were my two rallying hero's, the sport will never be the same without them, RIP!
