I don't think Mr. Fossett is interested in fleet type racing, at least he has never shown any interest. He has enough money to buy any top team and win what ever championship you think is the most important, just like Larry Ellison of Oracle. But he really doesn't do it for you, he does it for him.

He has climbed Mt. Everest, run the Iron Man Triathalon, swam the English Channel, flown numerous and various jets and baloons around the world, most times alone, also setting many aviation records. How many of you slackers have done any of those things, let alone all? (Everest, Iron Man and Channel swim)

I only hope that when I get to be his age I am at least half as motivated to keep going! <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
