cannot explain how gutted i feel about this great loss.
It was nice to see a huge convoy of scoobys turning up in the area on the sunday (on the news) And it was because of him he gave the impreza its name. A nice little tribute from the impreza forums :cool:
He is a nice little poem of colins website
Up at five and really so keen,
To see the bond of man and machine
3 hours to drive to get to the start
We all have a laugh and so full of heart
We know it is early, the weather is damp
But we need to see cars come off the ramp
Through fog and rain we push on with style
We know the main man is due in a while
Then comes a whistle, the marshal says time
A car is now coming through forests of pine
Its howl is so frightening, like a banshee on heat
There is no escape, as we shuffle our feet
And suddenly now its why we are here
McRae over crest of course in top gear!
Its been worth the wait, the weather, the toil,
To see the brave Scot here on home soil
But now there is silence, and its deafening too
Cos you and the wee man have bid us adieu.
So rest in peace Colin you and your lad
You gave us your best, John be proud of your dad.
The memories you left us are all just the best
You shone like a star, just simply the best.
Colin you"re a mate and thats what we all thought
It made you our hero and that just cant be bought.
Now your in heaven with your boy and at rest
But you left us the true meaning of FLAT OVER CREST!.

Then there was this which sums up friendship, loss, tradgedy with a loving and respectfull smile
Colin arrives at pearly gates.
St Peter : Ah, Mr McRae? here, take your pick.
Colin steps forward to see every car he's ever crashed, repaired and waiting.
Colin: Hm? how about a co-driver?
Up steps Beef.
Colin: And some competition?
Burns taps him on shoulder..............
RIP BUDDY you will be sadly missed :( :( :(
