@britdemo I do respect his dad. Jimmy was a good driver. But it was his son Colin who would be the most succesful family member of the mcrae family when he won 25 wrc wins plus the 1995 Wrc championship. That was the reason why I said "Colin was the Jim Clark of Rallying".
@3rdvincetheman it depends on the driver's style of pacenotes. it could mean what you said, or high RPM's in the gear (left 5 minus= left turn, fifth gear, low rpm) or the same way with plus meaning high RPM (seft explanatory)
I bet he was half asleep at the wheel, there was barely any corners, give him a challenge! Because at his level of skill this is just a huge oval course. Amazing, truly amazing, we lost a huge icon in motorsports.
Nicy grist said the wrong wrong word . He said left instead of right. That`not often you hear that . Grreat video . One of the best rally drivers of all time one of my favorites too.
That lst comment there by Nicky says just about all we need to know about the great McRae. "I dont think theres gonna be anyone as sideways as that coming out of that junction" Amen.
Every true race fan from every country misses him dearly and feels for Scotland's loss. It's hard to believe that someone so magical and incredible existed as both a racecar driver and a person as Colin was.
u aint want nuttin with that rassole man not a thing put him in a proper car in wrc and see was goin happen ya cunt show dunnn u kno who colin mcrae is toppp drivaaaaaa

Perfect!!!!. Also, can someone tell me what the "minus's" and "plus's" mean after the initial instructions?
x0PaRaDoX0x 2 years ago
Plus and Minus is effectively "on" or "off" the accelerator..i.e. the corner opens or closes for the driver...
BritWarriorGSW 2 years ago 3
Ahh, I get it now. Thanks for the info mate :)
x0PaRaDoX0x 2 years ago
minus means brake into corner.
plus means throttle into corner.
well thats the way I understood it someone correct me if I'm wrong
