He will never be forgotten, I was reading the MSA members latest magazine and there is a good spread on Meeke, he talked a lot about McRae and brought a lump to my throat still.

At a recent Q&A session with Meeke, McRae was mentioned in regards Meekes early career and Kris was clearly holding back a lot of emotion on the Legend.

Gone but NEVER forgotten :worried:

there's just nobody like Colin McRae.

I love that.

YouTube can take up a fair few hours :grinning:

that weekend in Donegal was unforgettable.

the best line-up any rally this Island has ever seen, WRC's galore then McRae

how good does the Metro sound whenever Nicky Grist goes quiet, wonderful.

this thread could go on forever, everyone has a memory of Colin. :grinning:

Very very tragic loss of life and when you read the report is makes it worse when it was totally unavoidable pilot error. RIP not only to colin but the 3 others who also needlessly lost their lives that day. Sorry but as a parent I would not knowingly put my child at risk and for that I cannot hold im in the regard i once did. i know this will upset/anger some but it is a personal opinion as a parent anin an instant where his ego took over 3 innocent people (2 children) lost their lives.

He was a great driver its sucks we lost him and Richard Burns (he will be dead 6 years on the 25/11) so close together.
