Great coverage sd, being a Donegal man and a rally fan, i travelled deep into a forestry outside Raphoe to hear the sound of this car roar up Mongorry, one of those moments that will stay forever, this car was top 5 position in this rally at a stage settin very fast times, Ireland thought we could produce drivers until this happened. Amazing weekend for fans, Go raibh maith agat..
That was the greatest year of the Donegal International, there was an epic amount of WRC machines, prob the most of any year..not to mention the usual MK2 and Corolla turnout in Donegal!......the end of the celtic tiger!! And Nesbitt was with the Mitsubushi WRC team and had a huge battle with Mark Higgins in the other Lancer WRC on Atlantic Drive...electric, I'll never forget the buzz of that year, a wee rally in Donegal hosting such epic rally machinery and talent. Sad to think back on it now.
In the middle of this clip the Metro soars by with the engine wailing. You know its Colin's car and when you hear him never letting off you definitly know, "yep thats Colin alright...""
Wat a driver.......... Watched him in Killarney...... He was in a class of his own............. Nobody can replace his great talent........ Loeb will come close........... but colin had something special about him...he brought the best out every car he drove........ I'm from Killarney and the amount of people that got interested in rally after watching him was massive......... Thanks colin 4 the Memorys!!!!!
Absolutely brilliant, Colin is a complete one off. A hero on the stages but also a normal genuine guy off the stages no airs and graces whatsoever. Why can't more superstars be like Colin, Seb Loeb take note
one of the best! Watched him in Donegal in the 6r4! was better to watch than any of the wrc cars! pure magic! no other driver made the the hairs on my neck stand on end, since berttie fisher (the god)!
GOD BLESS YOU BROTHER!!**** YOU ARE SUCH AN AMAZING HUMAN BEING! AND DEFIED THE LAWS OF DRIVING PHYSICS... WHY YOU? WHY YOU? ITS NOT FAIR SUCH AMAZING PEOPLE LEAVE US SO SPONTANEOUS!~~~ JUST MET YOU FEW MONTHS BACK IN OUR INTERVIEW AND NOW YOU ARE GONE?? !!WHY!! AT X-GAMES 13 in CARSON, CALIFORNIA! THANK YOU FOR THE MEMORIES COLIN YOUR A GOOD MAN... ---------> RIP COLIN JR. :(`
A true fighter who had the courage and ability of 100 drivers rolled into one. The excitement will never be the same without Colin's right foot on the pedal... RIP
He is a driving God forget Schumacher..... , at 1.29 when mere mortals would have given up the ghost, he NEVER lifted, the sign of a true genius, never ever ever give up, he will be sorely missed.
at the 1:29 clip that me's further down the road with the umbrella, you can view my vidoe clip of that stage by looking at my vids, pure class was colin, sadly missed already RIP
i remember watching him go that year, the celtic tiger in full flow, how times have changed
