Summary
Colin McRae’s motto was “if in doubt, flat out.” Today on Past Gas, we take a look at the Flying Scotsman and how he ruthlessly applied a “flat out” strategy to rally racing, transforming the sport and winning himself millions of fans. Why did Colin get into a shouting match with Subaru teammates on the cusp of winning a world title? What were the most spectacular wipeouts from a driver who was sometimes known as “Colin McCrash”? How did Colin revitalize the sport in the post-Group B era? James, Joe, and Nolan have all those answers and more on today’s episode.
