Colin McRae, the man who practically defined rally car racing and gave rally car video games a household name, died this past weekend in a tragic helicopter accident.

In case you didn't know, Codemasters' 'DiRT' is actually part of the Colin McRae line of racing games.

I actually did an interview for punchbutton with Colin's former navigator Nicky Grist. Colin was and is one of my heroes. I'm very sad.
