WOW!!! That doesn't sound too good. Hope the report is wrong about the number of survivors.

I agree, the world lost a great person. He loved what he did, be it driving or flying.

I thank God that he died doing something he loved. That is the way I want to go.

God speed Colin. You will be missed.

the man is gone.. it is a blow to me as well, for... the family tree is traced back to scotland.. both sides of the family.. so in a way he is a star to me..
always wanted to meet him and his brother. hes amazing driver, he and his brother. x games as well as europe has lost a real star in him. .

what will nicky grist do for a job now.. and what wil the rest of the world do now that we lost a real star.. it hurts me dearly
