A friend of ours,Gordon Mineo lost his life this weekend along with his wife,daughter and son in law.
I just can't believe it!
Some of you old timers may remember him running the Flash Gordon Nitro Funny Car many moons ago.
They were running in a Poker Run with his turbine powered Eliminator this weekend.All was going well,They were the second offshore boat to pick up the card and on the way back when they somehow ran just about head on with another boat that was on the way to pick up there card.
Unfortunatly the wife of the owner of the other boat also lost her life.
There were no survivors from Gordons boat.What made matters a little worse,Gordons best friend Leon was there to help remove there remains from the water.
My heart goes out to those familys suffering from those untimely losses.
And to Leon for what he didn't need to witness.
