Been doing the same, must have spent over 2 and a half hours on youtube thisevening. Love the videos above.

Heres one of him at Kames Nov '06:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq3my...elated&search=

This is the real McCrae, doing what he loved best ,out for a blast away from all the fuss of tv cameras.Just a real car enthusiast,who always stayed the local boy and never forgot his roots. R.I.P Colin and say hi to Burnsie
Thought that was a fitting quote that someone made.

Found a few other ones too:

-Competing in his 6R4 Donegal 2006 - BIG moment, but he gets away with it and won't stop laughing!! True representation of the legend, and the real Colin McRae .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Dw3C_RP3jE

-More 6R4 footage from Donegal:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUYZe...elated&search=

-Short clip from "The Colin McRae Story", fantastic footage of his Mk2 on a tarmac stage:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te1WETV26jI

carlo - Any chance you could change the title of the thread to Colin McRae Tribute Videos or something similar? Im sure other people would like to add thier favourites too.

Cheers
