So unfair and stupid! I just don't get why these people have to die. If there's something that resembles god up there, he's not doing his job properly.

Some nice folks here.
I'll realy miss Colin McRae, his 'duels' with Richard Burns (another untimely loss) were legendary.
I remember reading one article were Colin phoned up Richard (late at night and absolutely steaming drunk!) during a rally championship, hoping that he could put him off his stride. Needless to say he failed Laughing
Saddest thing for me is there's no legacy left since his wee boy was killed Crying or Very sad
He was also due to drive the 'Race of Champions' at Wembley (this Dec)with fellow scot David Coulthard

Deepest sympathy to his wife and daughter

RIP Colin and son
