WRC - Colin McRae - Scandinavian Flick & Handbrake Lessons

Watch Colin do an interview onboard, the co-driver looks relaxed and handles the ride pretty well. This section is a lesson on how to perform handbrake turns and Scandinavian Flicks.

"This is what it's like when you follow Tommi Makinen." LMAO

[@Chibanator97]

Rallying at its finest, may mcrae rest in peace

[@michaelanderson7715]

No, Loeb is the finest.

[@numptybaws3]

Sequentially controlled semi-automatic gearbox. Hes using the clutch because its a handbrake turn and its AWD so you need to clutch to avoid damage to the drivetrain. Hope that helps

[@ASirensSoliloquy]

The fact that he's fucking teaching as he's driving on the course (probably faster than anyone else too) just proves that he was something else.

[@OGTripleTriple]

I would give all my hair to be in the passenger seat and getting lessons from this man! RIP

[@reibangchakma]

id sell my kidney

[@bousias]

One of the top 10 of all time!! R.I.P. Colin

[@TheCQBVet]

Ledgend. Never forgotten. Rest in peace dude.

[@fredfinks]

What a FEEL he must have had for the dynamics of the car. I'm so amazed at the precision over a bumpy narrow as fuck goat track. I mean how much harder must it be than smooth bitumen/concrete. Like the skill of a snooker professional.

[@occamsrazor1285]

RIP Colin. We'll miss you.

[@mrbennnn]

That's an outstanding piece of driving, I'd kill to be that good... Then again, I'd also kill to bring him and his son back, Rest In Peace.

[@justinhilltyler]

Legendary.....R.I.P dude.

[@jesuschristneverlived6938]

What happened? Did he die?

[@Oscar97o]

Yes, he died in a helicopter crash 10 years ago.

[@100pru]

@tomikkkkk it all depends how long you are going to keep the handbrake on,if you were doing a full handbrake turn then yes you would need to press in the clutch(so it wouldn't stall the engine) especially if you are doing it from a highish speed as you would want to go down the gears to select 1st gear to accelerate away,you wouldn't necessarily av to press clutch in if going at speed&just quickly using the handbrake to get the back end of the car out if you were wanting to drift/slide car

[@poeta067]

I adore you colin, you will be always in my heart, your soul it's still alive.Peace!!

[@dpkeys]

"This is what it's like when you're following Tommi Makinen on the Safari Rally and he won't move over"

[@Svk82]

THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!R.I.P. COLIN

[@Bristecom]

The clutch is only needed when starting off or to prevent stalling. You normally don't use it altho with older transmissions, it was faster to use the clutch when shifting up. In this case, he's using it to keep the revs from dropping too quickly from locking the rear wheels and from the resistance of the road. If you kept the clutch in, it would be harder to turn and you would probably stall.

[@metaomicron72]

1:00 "This is what is like following tommi makkinen on the rally of safary when he doesn´t move out "xD

[@Dobbac]

Descanse en Paz, definitivamente una legenda del rally!

[@scaleop4]

one of the best.

[@Zmann42087]

Geez.. he was such a stud. RIP McRae.

[@Petbool]

The smoothier you go, the faster you go !

[@TheWolvesCurse]

since everyone here is discussing his favourite driver: Walter Röhrl is the god!

[@elliotbradley]

You see that first flick... ef'n sick.

[@kneckebr0t]

"If in Doubt...flat out" :) R.I.P

[@100pru]

the fastest rally driver to ever live,ask any team or person he worked with will tell you that,he was fearless&that was Colins' problem,being too fast/fearless he didnt know when to reign it in,therefore leavin us with some spectacular crashes to watch in disbelief,if he hadnt been as fearless as he was he would've set many more records,won many more rallies&been World Rally Champion a few more times aswell,my motorsport inspiration,RIP COLIN MCRAE,taken well before your time

[@mohammad2011436]

R.I.P. Colin McRae. We don't need to worry, we have Colin's friend Jonas Andromeda who currently competing for WRC, so Colin McRae era still remains.

[@OGSook]

R.I.P Colin! When in doubt, flat out!

[@gnashings]

@v1nnie0012 UNBELIEVABLE... Damn I miss this guy!

[@collegegoer45]

Does anyone know what DVD/VHS this is from? Im trying to find it so I can buy it and takes notes when I start rallying...please help!

[@DriftK13]

R.I.P colin, a great driver he was.

[@DriftK13]

@lawnmowerpower I don't know why Block's so popular. I find Sebastian Loeb 1000x better than Block.

[@st4focus4mk4]

i live by mcraes rule which was '' if in doubt, go flat out'' he was or is still a true legend!!!!!!! fact

[@slot962]

Rally drivers are the most well-rounded drivers in the world.

[@chan625]

He was such a nice guy :)

[@diegomacri]

abbiamo avuto il tempo di conoscerci e stimarci.Mi era piaciuto subito,quel ragazzo che non aveva paura di niente e di nessuno, che accumulave senza apparentemente batter ciglio un numero impressionante di incidenti (Miki Biasion)

[@VideoOfMike]

@DriftK13 THey made a short tribute to collin mc rae, they talked about how clarkson's son beats collin in video game and collin was frustrated and just kept on asking his kid to go over and play each day after school. I see your point tho, although as it looks hammond and may aren't really big fans of f1. They really should bring some rally driver to star in a reasonably priced car, maybe rally and touring car guys gets their own board:P

[@Transify]

Rest in peace master, rest in peace...

[@paulbudgen]

@videoofmike That Top Gear trubute was for Richard Burns, not Colin unfortunately. +1 for your comments about Top Gear needing to show the love for Rally Drivers in S.I.A.R.P.C though! Cheers

[@spnfs]

Rallying is way more difficult than F1 racing. F1 requires you to be a robot nowdays.

[@KuostA]

@Riff28Raff your wish just got answered. hope u saw it.

[@silverbulletPT]

He is going so fast and he still manages to talk normaly. I guess that kind of speed is a walk in the park for him.

[@codenamecordon]

@1337NoFear1337 well, he's from Scotland, it kinda makes sense, that he has a scottish accent:D

[@ahnhenden]

"When in doubt, power out!"

[@71j193]

1:00 AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Great mister McRae!!! Rally misse you!

[@MANIHCK]

When he pulls the scandinavian flick, i would have shitted my pants but, that girl handled the sight of the hill very well...

[@BioPower9000]

R.I.P Colin

[@gnashings]

@WoWAdvertisement He's my favourite too, but "best that ever lived"? Maybe - I would argue that Toivonen was right up there in terms of pure talent.

[@RomanianUser]

scandinavian flick ftw Rip colin

[@jfg22557]

@lawnmowerpower if you ever would've listened to Block talk, you'd hear how he praises colin and always speaks about how he was his idol, so dont be so quick to judge. Your talking about a guy who just broke into the WRC versus a rally legend, and I believe Ken does have the potential to become a modern day Colin in a couple years. Similar aggressive styles. They are/were both extremely talented. Forever Sideways - R.I.P. C. McRae.

[@Markbabb]

FUCKING LEGEND R.I.P McRae

[@Concretecanvas1]

Probably a bit late, but it's Colin Mcrae - Pedal to the Metal.

[@Nitin2000]

WOW

[@RatedRPaul]

Did you see the first flick!!??? On the edge of the cliff!

[@elliotbradley]

not the first one... the one on the cliff!

[@glenn1365]

he clutchs to build revs up for the exit

[@Emielrwb]

R.I.P

[@RoYaLMarTineZ]

you just need to keep on the throttle and not brake until you reach the corner

[@zeroflat24]

this guy sounded like william wallace and drove like god.

[@bgninjah]

nego sta!

[@CaptainCalorie]

NICE COMMENT! This video is about colin, not you!

[@clebmedia]

who likes the focus???

[@Arekp2ws]

OK, we know what to do with steering wheel, but how about brake and throttle? Let's say I want to do a scandinavian flick, driving 70 kph- steering wheel to the left and then flick to the right and again to the left. But when and how do I use pedals (Manual transmission)? Do I also need to shift gear up to get some traction on front wheels(FWD, no ABS)?

[@zhbvenkhoReload]

Arek The main part is that the car gets loose at the rear wheels. I have done it and I just clutch in in case I stop and I usually shift down let go off smoothl IF I really have to, otherwise I just dont downshift. I am not a professional driver, so take my advice with a grain of salt.

[@stam1ska]

+Arek Scandinavian Flick is more effective if you go faster before the turn and perform it with pushing the brake slightly. Remember that pushing the brake gives you faster turning in, of course if you don't lock the wheels.

[@SubaruB4RSK]

only thing is she started talking when he started.. but R.I.P Colin :(

[@mayah480]

But for example in French pilot = rally driver.

[@hprof1]

why wait when died? why not make a tribute in live? damn!!!

[@lawnmowerpower]

McRae > Block. No doubt!!

[@Axetele]

1:00 Funny!

[@S14VH45]

XD crackin on makenin

[@Kando0615]

1:32 "whoops i'm gonna go over the maintyan" (scottish accent) no big deal Colin!

[@caelanbaer6407]

[@Case_]

Kando0615 He actually says "It looks like we're gonna go over the bank and then we turn into the corner". He's just describing how to do the Scandinavian flick there.

[@wasabus2]

I've just loaded "Colin McRae's Helicopter Simulator" onto my PC, but it keeps crashing! IS THE MOST DISRESPECTFUL THING IVE SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE

[@midlothianboy]

Britain lost grea great talent that nobody can fill its big hole,,,,,simply sad. R.I.P.

[@rainey06au]

"looks like we're gonna go over the bank" but still...

[@TechTurkey]

RIP

[@BobbaFett83]

FULL LOCK is what he says

[@TheSubieFan]

haha ive almost mastered that yaa

[@BlackSunOfNile]

4 ppl have no Driving license

[@elliotbradley]

1:31 :)

[@laoishibee]

sequential gearbox...semi auto

[@shinmo117]

i dont^^ subaru 4ever!

[@YouJelly21]

@JMS444444 Now #1 is Vettel... don't think a rally driver could have beaten a guy who pretty much lives in asfalt. Not to say McRae wouldn't be #2 or #3 =)

[@gnashings]

So sad. Now all my favourite rally drivers are dead...

[@buttermilkpancakes00]

"guess it's just my lucky day" haha what a casanova. that's how you do it.

[@crazyhorse469]

Yeah McRae was okay, overrated but okay rest in peace.

[@Hoopr32]

-_-

[@renatolaranja52]

😂 OK kid ahahaha

[@djbencobb]

RIP
