Everyone should go out and buy a copy of DIRT even if you don't have a PS3/xbox360 so hopefully the proceeds go to his wife and daughter.
Thats Travis Pastrana's game though, its not one of the Colin McRae games though right?

As for buying the game, the video game companies have cold hearts and probly would not bump the royalties up. those F'rs

Helicopters seriously suck, i wanted to be a pilot when i was young, then i found out a third of the American deaths in the Middle East involved helicopters. just stay away from them. and tons of youtube videos of crashes


Rest in Peace Colin McRae

one of my close friends was way into rc hellicopters and which got his brother way into them. His brother then got bored of the rc ones and bought his own hellicopter and RIP as well cus he also crashed in his. To this day my friend wont forgive himself for getting his brother into the hobbie.

Rest in peace Colin McRae and his son also to the other friend and his child as well. So sad...

Lets see...they live in a 16th century house with a helipad...have houses in foreign countries that they either use a 6 seater helicopter or a JET to fly to.

Not to be a dick but I don't think they need the 4 cents a copy they might get.


on the topic though...best wishes to the wife and family. He was a legend.


really bummed about the kid. Didn't get a chance to live life.
