** Colin McRae - Born To Race **

Documentary aired on BBC Scotland. A fitting tribute to one of the Legends of Rallying. Colin McRae

[@AndrewFosterSheff69]

Seeing Colin McRae in his Subaru Impreza STi, I said to my mates "one day I'm going to have one of those cars"... years later I managed to afford a 2005 WRX. Thank you Colin! RIP.

[@BlakesGarage]

"If in doubt, Flat Out." RIP Colin.

What does "flat out " mean?

[@keeeerl]

Always, in every aspect of life!

[@lltipsy]

this quote literally includes his driving style, he didn’t think too much either go first or crash there wasn’t no double thinking in his career

[@dankata2266]

Colin inspired me to actually start driving. I remember when I was a kid around 6-7 years old and I played Colin McRae 2005 on the family computer. I also remember that I always wanted to watch Group B and McRae DVD's as a kid. Now I'm 15, my parents gave me a cheap little car to learn to drive in, for the 5 months that I've been driving, I changed my point of view of everything. I thought asphalt (track, hill climbs) were my thing, until I drove once on tarmac and gravel once. My ultimate dream is to become a rally driver, even a not very successful one, when I grow older. Everytime I see a meaneye Impreza I think of you. Thank you, Colin, you made my summer and opened a door for me, that I never thought would be opened. Next year I can legally compete in actual races and I cannot wait. Rest in Piece, Legend! 💔

[@dwightchaos9449]

How are you doing? Are you racing? I just saw this documentary and was going to write “good luck” to you racing and saw it’s 2 yrs old😂. Did you get to start racing?

[@wolfhaley8023]

Colin is the main reason i love rally so much,his determination and success with his career is so inspiring. "If in doubt,flat out" R.I.P Mr. McRae

[@countmurcielago9802]

There will only ever be one Colin McRae ❤️

[@marcuswyness4815]

even in 2019 it brings back such memories , still gutted he s gone , RIP Colin . massively missed

[@therodenthitman]

So insane that he survived 200kph whistling between trees for hours and hours of his life, racing motorcycles etc just to get taken in a helicopter. Terrible. That said what a legend he is, he put Subaru on the map for Rally and inspired many. RIP Colin!

[@mickkennedy1344]

11:56 -- The first SCOTTISH World Rally Champion was Crowned --- Colin never took kindly to people calling him 'British' --- on one foreign rally his co-driver remarked on the fans waving Union Jacks at him as he hurtled by, Colin quietly said : " I'm not British, I'm Scottish"

[@paulhope3401]

@@JG-ge3ui When Scots or Welsh win big in sports, they are called 'British' by the UK media, when they loose its 'Scottish' or 'Welsh' and vice versa when an Englishman wins something big. Its a fact... Why so salty?

[@adriano8729]

Fantastic piece. I absolutely adored him growing up, Guaranteed entertainment with Colin behind the wheel. May he Rest In Peace. Legend

[@Richard-ps7ht]

This needs more thumbs up. This is a true legend.

[@garinakbar1907]

In all rally fans, including me... the number one best rally driver will always be Colin McRae... regardless of how many Championship he had won or anything, but his flamboyant, determination, sideways and never give up easily-style is what makes him a legend....he really deserves a biopic movie...

[@timwalling4525]

Will never forget 1995 GB rally , got pictures of Carlos and Collin and Richard burns all in the cars coming into service and they were all so in the zone still...Great rally times and Collin you were Amazing a proper legend 👌

[@jasemat]

Watching this and when David Richards says everyone in the UK was rooting & celebrating the results of the 1995 WRC he wasn't kidding. Remember chipping back down to Chester Racecourse for the celebrations at the finish and Prodrive kinda fucked up at their stand and sold us proper staff only 555 jackets. Every services we stopped at on the way home we had people shaking our hands and congratulating us on our success. Guess they were probably a little disappointed when they saw me get into my shitty little company Escort and drive off. Still it's nice to see i'm the slightly blurred face @ 11.56 2nd left from bottom right in this vid. RIP Colin, Johnny, Ben & Greame all gone far to early.

First heard of him through the PlayStation game & then got addicted to rallying. I've still got some old VHS tapes, because I was so young & it used to be on late (about 3am if I remember right) we used to record it & watch the next day. Good memories of a great man R.I.P

Now we have ken plop thinking hes at colins level mayb in fame copying everything colin did 1st. Except winning true rally events. But colin even with his dad earned his own way up. Ken block just has a rich dad who gave him his shoe deal allowing him to drive 1000 takes whatever it takes to look good. Colin just was.

[@Rhys423]

I get your point but Ken block has done some amazing bits of driving. I mean have you ever watched gymkhana. I’ve never seen Collin pull off some of the things he’s done. In my opinion there both really good drivers. Fair enough if you think Ken block is all daddy’s money but in the end winning is winning by an inch or a mile

[@wilspu5590]

@@Rhys423 Ken Block practises those gymkhana stunts repeatedly. Colin Mcrae drives incredibly on his first go. Ken Block is decent, but he's nowhere near the level of any wrc driver.
