RIP - Colin McRae - cotharyus - 09-17-2007
Not sure if any of you guys heard or not, but McRae and his son were killed Saturday when the helicopter he was piloting crashed.

Yes I heard, it was posted on every single car forum I am on, and it is very very sad. There are articles galore about it, the saddest part is that his five year old son also died. He was said to be a very skilled helicopter pilot which makes me wonder what caused the crash.
Colin's legacy will be that despite the many times he cheated death in a rally car, it was not racing that claimed his life in the end.
