Rally racing lost its John Force Saturday with the tragic death of Colin McRae and his 5-year-old son, along with two others, in a helicopter crash in his native Scotland. As an avid computer video gamer, I've played the brilliant Codemasters-crafted games that bear McRae's name for years, often imagining I was him, handbraking through a tight bend in the French hills or bounding over ridges in the Australian outback in Subaru WRXs and Ford Focuses, tuned in to co-driver Nicky Grist's pace notes.
It's hard anytime we lose anyone in motorsports, someone who shares with us a kindred spirit. I never met McRae, just admired him from afar when he wasn't on my monitor, yet somehow I feel as if I've lost a friend. He might not have been as well-known as stars of other sports, but the relentless Scotsman was a champion in my book
