Mickey Thompson
The Fast Life and Tragic Death of a Racing Legend
by Erik Arneson
|
|
|
|
|
When Mickey Thompson and his wife Trudy were assassinated in
their driveway in the pre-dawn hours of March 16, 1988, the
salacious details of the crime and the years of legal wrangling that
followed made for hundreds of splashy headlines and sexy
television soundbytes. After all, the story had it all . . . unknown
hooded gunmen riding into a gated Southern California community
on bicycles, ambushing their victims and brutally ending their lives
while neighbors ate breakfast and read the morning paper. Leaving
behind more than $70,000 in jewelry, the killing was an obvious "hit,"
and those close to Mickey and Trudy immediately pointed to
Mickey's hot-headed former business partner Michael Goodwin as
the mastermind behind the tragedy. Nearly 20 years later, Goodwin
was found guilty by a Pasadena Superior Court jury in 2006 of two
counts of first-degree murder. The actual gunmen were never
identified or apprehended. John Walsh and America's Most
Wanted did multiple episodes leading up to the conviction. Robert
Stack featured the murders on Unsolved Mysteries. CBS' 48 Hours
Mystery got in the act. Everyone wanted a piece of the story. A good
story, however, has much more than a powerful ending. Who was
Mickey Thompson? What made him more than just another victim of
violent crime in America? This is what Mickey Thompson: The Fast
Life and Tragic Death of a Racing Legend explores.

Muscle Car Confidential
Here are the photos (including outtakes) and the hard cold
facts on muscle cars from the 1964 GTO to the 1976 Trans
Am 455 HO--twenty-four in all. The 1970 Buick Gran Sport
GSX, Oldham notes, was "the best handling muscle car we
ever tested." The 1968 Plymouth Road Runner, on the other
hand, was "just a car that didnt run very well"--despite its 426
Hemi. Today, people might know the articles Oldham wrote,
and they might know the performance numbers he got. But
how he did those things was an untold story. This
behind-the-scenes book is a close-up look at what it was like
to live in the muscle car era and to help create the myth that
still lives on today.

cars, from the high-performance fantasies of yesterday to the
high-finance wheeling and dealing of today. In full-color
pictures and detailed prose, the book follows these cars from
their performance beginnings to their decade of decline to an
automotive world awakening to their historical significance
and eternal cool.
