According to the 6PM news here in NZ, crashed his helocopter and took his 5yo son and 2 others with him. What a tragedy!

Yep, bit of a shock that one... It was bad enough loosing Richie Burns a couple of years ago.

Took his son & 2x family friends too.

By a strange co-incidence, McRae's old boss also crashed his helicopter today (on his way back from the Grand Prix) but he managed to wak away from it.

He lived a good life
I'm just cranky his poor 5year old didnt get the chance too:mad:

He knew how dangerous the roads were so just fly everywhere and avoid the traffic.
RIP Colin and Son
