Tragedies happen just too fast!
As I just read on a friend's blog that Colin McRae, Rally World Champion of 1995, died on Saturday, September 15th.
It's a terrible loss for his family and friends and the world of Motorsports.
Cause of his death was a helicopter crash at Jerviswood, Lanark. Along with him died his 5 year old son Johnny and Graeme Duncan, a friend of Colin, and Johnny's friend Ben Porcelli (6).
What caused the crash is unknown yet.
Colin McRae often took his helicopter to get from one point to another just as others take their cars. That way he wanted to save time so he could be more with his family.
Colin was very much an inspiration and role model to motorsport fans all around the globe.
My heart is with the families!
