Re: Gordon Mineo dead
  Forbes article <font color="blue"> ... he was driving a 2001 Eliminater, a 36-foot, offshore race boat nicknamed "Flash Gordon," the OHP reported. It also details how Mineo managed to put two helicopter turbine engines into the boat, giving it a top speed of more than 165 mph.  From the 1960s until the 1990s, Mineo raced dragsters, National Hot Rod Association spokesman Anthony Vestal said. Though he never won an NHRA national event, Vestal said Mineo he had several runner-up finishes in the 1990s.   All Photos are from flashgordonracing.com </font>
