The one, the only, the legend. RIP Colin.

I love how he casually had the conversation as he was doing something essentially terrifying, border line nightmareish, for 99% of the world population.

IMO, the greats of WRC:

Walter Rohrl, Sebastian Loeb, Colin McRae. All three were unparalleled in their ability to just become the car and maintain control well beyond the limits of adhesion.

McRae was just the one driver I grew up watching in the series.

some tarmc

SL=Tarmac / gravel king  
MG=Snow king

SL is for sure my favorite, cause he rules in tarmac. The only more recent wrc driver that is some what close to having that kind of tarmac ability will have to be GP.

Loeb and Gronholm are like polar opposites in driving style. Sebastian sticks like fucking glue and Marcus likes to slide like a mofo, hence they’re particular shining stages. Sebastian is quick as hell though, abeit his in-cabin footage is boring(for typical rally that is) as he’s so smooth it doesn’t even look like he’s trying.

GP, you must be referring to Panizzi(correct me if I’m wrong). He was pretty good on tarmac but never put the foot down on the dirt.

Deleted his posts. Way out in left field and totally off topic.

Growing up, my favorites were McRae, Loeb, and Petter Solberg. I loved his gold shoes! lol

Those videos were pretty sick though, albeit dated.
