Armadillo Armada in the Private Space Race

If the Armadillo Armada wins they will all be 10 million richer and have fame and fortune to boot. The thing that makes this kind of amusing is that John Carmack is the ring leader of this little group.

"For fun, Carmack used to modify twin turbo-charged Italian sports cars, until he had a Eureka moment.

"I thought to myself, you know, for less money that I spend on Ferraris the past decade, I think I can make my own spaceship." "

I just thought the same thing. I am also thinking he should get back to work on Doom III so we can all play it before the end of the year.
