Yes something doesn't add up.

But then again, all the best drivers in the world are excellent driver well before they are 12. Michael Schumacher won his first karting championship at the age of 6.

Wonder what Jay Leno owned at that age.

(Today, of course, he has arguably the second-largest collection of private cars in the world).

second-largest? In the world? I won't be surprise if he is not in the top ten...........

Remember there are lots of huge collections that are kept very private, few people knows about His collection is just very famous that he shares with the world, which is very nice of him.

From what I understand, Leno's collection is second to that of the Sultan of Brunei.....who of course, has a lot of oil money.

Leno owns about 100 cars, Sultan of Brunei have 5000 cars.

I believe there are tons of private collections in the world that have more then 100 cars that we don't know about.

Mullin and Petersen to just name 2, sure they are museum now, but they were and still privately own.

Then you see pics of private collection like these pops up once in a while, they all easily exceed 100 cars. There are many many multi millions and billionaire car guys in this world!

Leno is top 10 in the U.S. at best, I am guessing that is probably not even true. In the world.............top 50?

You may (?) be correct, Henry. In my earlier statement about Leno, I was simply going by the official numbers....and from what we do know. Most people, though, who have that kind of wealth like to flaunt it.....so I don't suspect that there are that many still in the closet.
