Default Former WRC Champ Richard Burns Dies :'(

damn, im totally rocked by this news, only 34 too this is so unexpected, considering there was talk of him coming back not too long ago, one of the best raw talented wrc drivers of the modern era has passed , i met Rich at an industry sponsored track day in 2000 and had the priviledge of being driven around at what seemed like warp speeds at a very wet cadwell park, and was compounded by his finesse at the wheel and impeccable car control. this is a real blow to motorsport, may we all remember him for his performances in the car and statesman like persona out of the car.

RIP Richard Burns
