Well as some may know we sadly smoke Bambi while attending Zcon in San Antonio! One of our support corporate vehicles (Cayenne S) was used to transport some supplies and crew to ZNationals and then straight to Zcon. Third day in heading to the track event we had Bambi attempt a full frontal assault on the German Tank. Bad move. We were on a major Interstate in the slow lane when all of a sudden - bang! No time to react as she decided to dart in front full speed. Kept the Cayenne Straight and exited first off-ramp There was a trooper serving and protecting (radar trap). With the kill still fresh and hairs and remnants spewed on the fender the cop was able to write a report within 5 minutes. Never saw the deer on the side of the highway on the way back. So Bambi either was hit so hard it was bounced back into the bushes/oblivion or it had a little adrenaline left and darted a few metres for it’s final resting place.
Damage was $9000+ and we luckily were able to drive it back some 3000 km’s to Toronto to get the work done! Bottom line it is just a car and no passenger injuries!

One less dear to worry about in Texas!
