Not sure how I missed this line on my first read through the thread. The onboard videos from McRae on the '95 RAC are some of the few I've watched where you can clearly hear the sound of the crowd inside the car: must have been incredible to have actually been there!

Love that picture and the video clip of the cars coming through there: one of those little clips that demonstrated just how aggressive McRae was at the wheel. Although the die-hard rally fans rubbished the X-Games rallying thats still one of my fave clips of McRae in action. The car control is sublime (up until the point when he rolls!) and there isn't a moment of hesitation when he lands: quality! Its not exclusively McRae, but this clip would be my choice... ...I prefered the look of the WRCars that followed, but the sight and sound of McRae in a Group A Impreza is what sold rally to me as a youngster. As for picture, its this one... ...its a pretty rubbish picture, but I took this on the Saturday at the Festival of Speed 2007 (McRae's last public appearance). Myself and the girlfriend got absolutely pelted with rocks as I took this, as McRae was taking the corner way faster than anyone else (how unusual!): the day after the fence had been hastily moved back about 6 feet!
