In the BBC article it said he got hooked at the age of 10 on rally
"Just days ago Mike told how as a boy he became hooked on racing while watching the event in which he died, formerly known as the RAC Rally." .(from The Mirror.co.uk) http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/tm_objectid=16147003%26method=full%26siteid=94762%26headline=rally%2dace%2dkilled%2das%2dhis%2dcar%2dhits%2da%2dtree%2d-name_page.html
I only hope that when it is my time that I go out doing something I love. As sad as it is for such an untimely death, getting to do what you love doing, up to the end.. is something special.
