WOW..... truly scary.
i just have one dumb question to ask....... where are the motors?
do they remove them for the investigation? or were they ripped out and sitting in the bottom of the lake?

was thinking the same thing but theres a pic of flash gordon in the water and there is nothing left of the interior so im thinking it got ripped out.

Only 4 bolts holding them in guys.
Sad deal. I have my own views about running side by side with passangers in the boat at speeds over the century mark. But I won't get into that here out of respect.
I remember flash gordan running funny cars when I was a kid.

468, one report, recently, was that it was head on, not side by side. A mechanical failure caused one boat to turn in front of the other. However looking at the pictures, both boats seems to have impact at the cockpit. I'm sure we'll learn the facts when they are released...

No, his name was Gordon Mineo, Flash Gordon was the name he ran on his funny cars for years.
