    We don't need to lose any more good drivers! Why can't some of the horrible drivers around Atlanta die instead?

    This sucks in general... all the way around. Not only a great driver was killed, but a friend and two kids. That's gonna hurt his wife and other kid... and all of their family. If I prayed, I'd send one out for 'em.

    Considering he died in a helicopter crash i assume age had nothing to do with it.

    Anyway, he was one of the greatest drivers on the planet.

    It can't be... I was just racing him like 5 mins ago on DiRT. j/k

    This really sucks, he was a damn good driver. When I heard the word Rally (or even WRX), he was the first person who come to mind.
