There goes another rallying giant, along with Richard Burns. Codgie (as he's known here in Scotland, said Cod-Jay) was, till today , a living legend in the sport of motor racing, and a true ambassador of Scotland, showing the fighting spirit and determination us Scots are famed for. He even did track racing for the Scudaria Ecosse team ( I think thats the right name), just to show he had the real skill to drive the wheels of anything be on or off track. RIP Colin, you will be sorely missed.

PS; On a side note, there went Codemasters franchise. You peeps might want to think about picking up any or all of his games you can get your hands on as they may well turn in to collectors items.

...have also heard on the radio that McRaes 5 year old son, another 6 year old, and a 37 year old man were killed as well.

Ironic. It would have made more sense for him to die in a high speed car crash. This is further proof that race car drivers should not "fly". :p
