~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Unbelievable in car footage - the flying Scot could literally fox trot round the forrests http://www.motorsportmad.com/view/3214/col...d-rally-gb-2001 Gone but never forgotten ! Thanks for the memories Colin CGS
marky.t.s Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 superb!...pretty scary watching it without hearing the pacenotes.
scouk Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 superb!...pretty scary watching it without hearing the pacenotes. My god! I've watched plenty footage of Colin at work but that video has me bewildered! How... just HOW did he get that focus thought most of those turns!! That guy has something much stronger than "the force" on his side.. Forget natural ability, Supernatural more like it! WoW!!
the squiggle Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 Some of the flat in 6th stuff is incredible Bit near the end is skill beyond belief Sorely missed mate
scouk Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 I do understand your comment.. But at the same time It's appreciating good footage of what one mad can do in a rally car! For example that video will go side by side with one of the other great rally videos! No.. not COlin but of Walter Rohl in the Audi with his riverdance technique on the pedals. How many times have we seen that video over the years? Are we still impressed with it? yes! and rightly so...
john mac Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Like a lot of guys on here , i can't watch any Colins vids without a tear in my eye.There will be a wee piece of us always in mourning for Colin ,but we know it will heal and get a bit easier with time, but we will never forget him. I've had impreza's for the last 9 years ,my dream car,all because of a certain local lad winning a world championship.Forget the champion,the multi millionaire,the tv cameras,if you were lucky enough to meet him ,he was an approachable down to earth local guy who like all of us had a passion for anything with wheels and im sure on his memorial day he was looking down with that wee smirk on his face at all of us in our Scoobys. thanks Cal the original poster for the link to that amazing in car footage The man was a master of his craft.
nkwrx Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Great video Cal, we think we know something about car control until you see something like that. Genius, legend, hero. Period!
cullenmin Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 That video's quite impressive, every corner I thought he was gonna bin it but no, complete car control Cheers for the vid, good find
andy Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 I've given this thread a bit of a tidy and got rid of the troll posts and replies to the troll posts in case you're wondering why stuff has been removed. As you were, gentlemen
thefastone Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Nice one Andy! I thought that watching this vid without the pace notes, was just bizzare.... It was like watching a couple on the way to the shops almost, you know, Like theres no urgency to it like.... but then you see the road ahead and you KNOW thats fast... Some superb footage, and a nice Find Callum!
Big Gordon Posted January 5, 2008 Posted January 5, 2008 Absolutely brilliant, got his dvd for xmas, awesome and emotional,in a word GENIUS!
Gee Wr1 Posted January 6, 2008 Posted January 6, 2008 My laptops gone belly up at the mo so using the PS3 browser for internet access, PS3 browser won't play that vid Aswell as getting the new Mcrae ledgend dvd for xmas i also got a dvd of Colin & Nicky in car from the Donegal 2006 rally driving his 6R4. What i've watched so far is fantastic(its 1h20 long) Great pics from the cams on the car, theres 1 placed just betwwen Colin & Nickys heads, couple looking back at them in their seats, pedal cam & bumper cam as well as some roadside footage. If you are a fan of Colin its amazing to watch, if you like 6R4s it's fantastic to watch & if like me your a huge fan of the late Mr McRae & the 6R4 is prob my fav rally car it's pure heaven to watch
