I can't recall discussing WG too much but the description of his personality from people who know him sounds like a lot of other very competitive people I have met. They are nearly all self centred to some extent because in a way they have to be and their emotions before and after competing are on a roller coaster. I saw Peter Janson threaten a fellow competitor with all sorts of stuff one night during a rally which on reflection was more funny than anything else.
