Default LS1 Baron?

Allright guys, sorry if I'm late, but I have to know what ever came of this "LS1 Baron". I read the entire sticky, and I'm dieing to know!

Did this clown ever post after that thread?

Big Bronco, thank you, for bringing this "OWNAGE OF THE DECADE!" to everyone's attention, and for making it a "sticky". I was LMAO through the entire thread!

Did this guy ever post again? Ever?

You know I've never read that sticky. It looks so dam long. I'm too lazy. Maybe one day when I'm really bored, I will read it. I'm sure its funny as hell like everyone says.

I still find it amazing that he had almost 1000 posts as a bull *******. I am going to have to re-read that. It was HYSTERICAL.

hahaha, i just got through reading that thread for the first time....that was fuggin' awesome!!!

but hey according to http://www.f-body.org/gears, i guess it is still possible with the specs that he listed (assuming the normal 6000 Redline):

Redline: 6000
Gear Ratio: 2.52
1st: 4.152
2nd: 2.205
3rd: 1.00
4th: 0.596

He'd just have to have 32" wheels to do it, and still be able to overcome drag (in 3rd gear, since 4th would be useless)....

Now I dont know what track he was on, but there is one more very important thing that may have been overlooked. What car was in front of him? If there was a fast car that he was drafting, it may be possible. If you dont believe drafting someone else makes that big a difference, check this out:

http://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/index.asp?ID=43641

Its a link to the fastest bicycle: 167 MPH (assisted by a leading vehicle).

If some guy can do that with 1 man-power, what could the Baron do with several hundred horse power. 4th gear might be usable, although not likely with those gears. Other than that though, and Id doubt the validity of pushing that car that fast. Id really like to know how this turns out, but all you borish ogres scared the poor guy away!
