Every now and then I think what the hell super 4 characters would do in our modern world and I think Ruby would be a good rally driver like Michèle Mouton since in the show she's already done racing challenges, I feel like Brock would be an extreme sports stunt man for red bull but also rally race too only for Ruby to win
(I like this sport too)
September 15th 2007 saw the tragic death of Scottish world rally champion, Colin McRae, his son Johnny, the boy's friend Ben Porcelli and Graeme Duncan, when his helicopter came down near McRae's home in Lanark.
On the helicopter that day, we lost a legend, but most of all, we lost four souls, Colin, his five year old son, Johnny, and two family friends, Graeme Duncan,37 and Johnny’s six-year-old friend Ben Porcelli.
While an investigation could not find a definitive reason for the crash McRae was blamed for low flying, no fault in the helicopter itself was found but not ruled out.
The funeral for Colin and Johnny took place on 26th September at Daldowie Crematorium near Glasgow.
A “Celebration of Life” service took place at St Nicholas Church in Lanark on Sunday 30th September crowds of around 15,000 gathered outside the church, Martin Hewins, McRae’s personal bagpiper for many years, played Flower of Scotland as the family arrived for the service.
Friends of the pair shared poems and anecdotes from the McRaes’ lives. After the service, Colin McRae’s widow, brother and father bowed and applauded the crowds who had gathered outside to pay tribute to the McRaes. (As seen in the pic)
In November 2008 he was posthumously inducted into the Scottish Sports Hall of Fame.
In January 2015 an extraordinary 30-mile convoy of Subarus smashed into the record books in honour of the rally ace. An estimated 1100 Subarus drove from his home town of Lanark in Scotland to Prodrive’s HQ in Banbury, Oxfordshire.
Colin’s dad, Jimmy McRae led the Scooby convoy on its nine-hour and 300-mile pilgrimage. At Prodrive, 1086 cars spelled out Colin McRae to qualify the event for a new Guinness World Record. The previous record for cars spelling something out was 800 cars.
Just goes to show there are some pretty weird world records out there… But it’s hard not to be impressed by an event that raised nearly £40,000 for charities supported by our first and only world rally champion to date.

Okay, today my obsesion is not a car, is a driver. Michèle Mouton.
1st and only woman on winning a World Rally Championship, she started racing as a co-driver in the 1973, but her first rally as a driver was in the 1974 in the Corcega Rally, driving a 1800cc Alpine A110. She raced multiple rallies with many cars like the Abarth 131 Rally or the Lancia Stratos. In 1981, Audi choose her as her driver to test the Group 4 Audi Quattro Sport with the revolucionary AWD sistem. In that year, she won her first Rally title in the San Remo Rally. She was a driver during the big times of the dangerous Group B
Her carreer with Audi ended in the 1985, after she raced dealing with mechanical problems and the death of her father. She stopped her rally life in 1986 after winning the German Rally Championship with a Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, leaving her with 4 victories and 9 podiums on her rally carreer!
As extra information, she also raced in many other categories, like Pikes Peak Hillclimb in 1985, being the first non american driver who won the race (she was french), the first (and still the only) woman winning the race, AND BROKE THE TRACK RECORD!
#OTD in 1937 – Ireland's most successful female rally driver, Rosemary Smith, is born in Dublin.
Rosemary Smith was a successful rally driver during the 1960s. Rosemary was a dressmaker by trade but when she met Delphine Bigger, she was introduced to rally driving. Delphine’s husband was a rally driver and they invited Rosemary to rallies as a co-driver which led her on the path to becoming a major competitor in rally driving. Rosemary was soon snatched up by Rootes Group (a British car…
