  1. Glad you`re ok mate. You`re not having too much luck this weather!
  2. Hope so mate, how anyone could be insensitive at this time is beyond me.
  3. Some great photos there guys. I`ve only saw the great man twice and both times were down at Wales Rally GB. The 1st time I saw him was in 2004, we got to one of stages early on a cold damp September morning. As we tried to find a good spot to see the cars go by the hype around the stage was that Colin McRae was at this very stage spectating, his brother Alastair was competing in a Subaru for the Production Cup that year. Sure enough after the top 20 or so cars had went through the focus turned to McRae as he was walking through the stage stopping to allow for photos and autographs. Even a star like McRae was standing in the pouring rain in a field full of sheep cr@p! I just stood there in awe, he was just like us, watching the sport he loved. The 2nd time was the following year, 2005, when he was competing for Skoda. I was down at the Service Park in Swansea. The cars were being held in the paddock before being allowed to go for service. With the drivers chatting it was a great opportunity to take photos of all the big names. However there was a subdued atmosphere at the Service Park this particular day. News filtered through of reports that the Peugeot driven by Marko Martin had crashed and his co-driver Michael Park had been killed. The reports were true of the tragedy. Another sad day that I will always remember.
  4. Not sure why you`re angry. Not meant to be offensive or disrespectful in any way.
  5. Looks very clean but not sure about wheels and no rear spoiler. Saw a STI Limited at the dealers today with the A Line rear lip spolier, looks odd.
  6. For everyday road use T1Rs are great. Maybe too soft for track use though.
  7. Very nice example mate.
  8. Scary coincidence.
  9. Cracking pictures John. Really like that black EVO FQ300 (I`m I allowed to say that? ).
  10. Colin was THE reason why I got into the whole Subaru culture and my love of rallying. Extremely sad news. To all who lost their lives may you rest in peace. To all families concerned I send my condolences. Colin
  11. You`ve got to be joking, thats just a Rip Off!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  12. Only just turned on the laptop so just found out about the tribute today. Apologies for not attending. Well done to Grant for organising this and to everyone who represented the club. R.I.P. Colin McRae
  13. Agreed. Sad news.
  14. Have you tried your local dealer mate?
  15. Good to meet you too mate, and Steve as well. Hope you managed to stay awake on the drive home.
  16. Who's was the white Sec C Type RA from Guernsey? That really looked good. Also nice black EVO on track.
  17. Was that you being a bit tight mate.
  18. Sorry to hear your bad news mate, hope everything gets sorted soon and if your looking for a decent 2nd hand Sony Stereo give me a PM.
  19. The Focus WRC looks much better.
  20. One careful owner, NOT!
  21. Excellent results John, nice one mate.
  22. I`ll second that, with all the discounts I`ve had I think I actually owe the club money!
  23. One of your better ones Mark.
