We as a club have lost our hero forever but we will never ever forget you.

Thankyou for putting the impreza on the map, as it was because of what

Our thoughts and prayers are with your families, Rest in Peace Colin & Johnny and your 2 friends.

A true hero in every way!

My wife and I had the privilege of meeting Colin and talking with him last year when he was here in California for Xgames.

He was very down to earth and very funny. It was a real honor to have been able to meet him!

Here are a few of my pictures.

At Xgames when Colin & Nicky rolled I captured it with a 28 sequnce shot. In less than an hour I had 1 of the pictures printed and had Colin and Nicky sign it.

As a parent, I extend my heartfelt sympathies to the families of all concerned. I cannot begin to imagine your grief and hope you are in someway consoled by all of the messages of support from around the world.

As a motorsport fan, I have followed his career for many years. I was always impressed by his scruff of the neck approach to each stage - until I saw a short programme with him explaining car dynamics, searching out valuable milliseconds. Then I realised that the man was really a scholar who understood his art.

Despite his deep understanding of the art, not many sportsmen guaranteed the tension and drama of Colin McRae where part of his legend parallels the Scottish football team: will he finish the event!!!

Scots thrive on hope and ambition. Colin winning the WRC crown delivered many of our hopes and ambitions.

A great Scottish legend in the best traditions, sorely missed.

I don't know what to say that hasn't been said already......but for me he was the most exciting sports man on the planet!

We're all going to die,but some never live!Colin lived enough for two lifetimes so don't be sad and celebrate his life!
