I heard that he was coming over here to attend a stock car race soon. Rumor
is that is what is being considered if he doesn't get picked up next season
with the 2-cars-only per factory team thing the FIA just threw out there. It
would be interesting to see if he could compete in a field of 43 as I am
sure he could handle a car alone on a track.

Colin McRae "Driving-down-to-Post-Office-to-Pick-up-my-Giro" ?

He does know that they don't have co-driver/navigators in NASCAR, right?
LOL! Had to say that. I'd like to seem him try just to see if he could cut
it or not. Most competitive drivers are good in whatever they get into, I'm
sure he'd be no different.

He'd probably roll it

They still have to release a playable version of CMR3... then they can start
on the PC version of CMR4...?

But he'll feel right at home with his good old boy spotter yacking his ear
off.

No man is an island. ;o)

Would be kinda redundant :

"Turn left... turn left... turn left... turn left..." ;-D

Seems as though they've abandoned CMR3 or something and are now just going
to replace it with CMR4.

They haven't stated if there will be a PC version though.

'Left - Long 300, Left - Long 600, Left - Long....' LOL! I can only imagine
the scanner chatter like this ;-)

I really do think it'd be a hoot to see, but alas, Dave Despain said
something about Colin had come out and said thanks but no thanks that he was
sticking to WRC and then Dave made some snide but accurate comment about CM
not having a ride for next season in WRC or that Citreon was showing no
interest in him for next season or something to that effect. We'll see I
reckon.

Yeah.. I know. My point is, why bother trying to fix up a game that is
flawed in it's basic engine design just to please a few whiney sim racers...
when you can make a whole new game for the consoles, sell it and walk away?
