Patrick Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 As a rally fan, I'm saddened by his death, one of the "last living legends in rally driving" according to megaman. He was one helluva driver and this will impact the sport greatly. He died in a helicopter crash, but he has not been identified properly yet.

Mallard Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 Wow, that's really sad. I met him at the last Xgames and he seemed like a really down to earth guy. Not to mention he's a hell of a driver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaewsky1 Posted September 15, 2007 Report Share Posted September 15, 2007 That is sad. I just finished reading the article about him in the new 0-60 mag. The author of the article mentions being a little leery of flying with Mcrea in his helicopter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bonacci01 Posted September 16, 2007 Report Share Posted September 16, 2007 I just happened to buy a magazine earlier today at the local giant eagle called 0-60. It is the fall 2007 premier issue and features a story, about you guessed it, Colin McRae with his cars, and helicopter.There is a full 2 page picture inside from inside the cockpit with colin flying his heli.
