Blast from the past - Colin McRae rallying Ford Escort Mk2

in Rallylast year

Hi, friends!

This video is something really precious because it covers the Manx National Rally 2007 and we know that this year was the last year of McRae 's life.

He died in a helicopter accident in September 2007 when he had some serious plans about his developed R4 car, but also with the contract with X-raid team to drive their BMW on Dakar Rally 2008.

He also planned WRC return which was something the whole rallying community hoped for. Unfortunately nothing of his plans really happened but the legend about him will stay in fan's hearths for a long time.

On Manx National Rally he drove historic Ford Escort Mk2 car which is a rear-wheel drive machinery which suited his driving style in a best way.

Please enjoy in this rally document and Colin's drive... :)
