Watch A Deer Crash Into A Racing Corvette’s Windshield
The annual Daisy Dukes Contest at this weekend’s HyperFest at Summit Point in West Virginia was delayed after a driver in a Corvette collided with a deer that made the mistake of trying to outrun a Z06 across the track. Warning: Semi-Graphic Video.
What started out as a relaxing day at the track ended abruptly when a deer that got itself trapped inside the course tried to get out. The driver of the Corvette basically had no way of avoiding Bambi as it attempted to jump over the car but instead went crashing into the windshield, spraying the interior with bits of glass.

And it gets worse according to the driver of the Corvette:

Bad enough my car got smashed, but to add insult to injury the HyperFest emcee told ten thousand Hillbillians that I was responsible for the thirty minute Daisy Duke delay.

Tragic.

is there any pics of the aftermath?

… 1 foot left and he was fuxored

Remember the Mercedes exploding the big ass rabbit or whatever? Too lazy to find it.

Unlucky and lucky at the same instant.

Although he could have just had his visor down (which no one does because there’s no ventilation when in a car), his reaction was smart by covering his eyes. That definitely could have been a lot worse.

I only drive with visor down… but that has more to do with my eyes being absurdly sensitive to light and I have a heavy smoked visor.

Edit: Actually most people I know drive with visor down due to rocks and clag coming into the car at events.

I figured most street cars at events like this had their windows up.

Edit - Looking at the video again, his windows were down. But either way he had the awareness to cover his eyes.

“windows down” is a requirement at most amateur/educational drivers events in the USA. Has to do with the insurance companies and you being able to be “pulled” from a wreck when you fuck up.

shit sucks

there was blood on the steering wheel/column, one of its spikes broke off in my car, its ass knocked my driver mirror past my face and onto the passenger floor, and while doing so, shit in the window

And from this year’s Hyperfest/LeMons weekend:

I remember worrying about the giant rabbit living somewhere in the infield of TMP at a track day there. Thing was HUGE.

I remember that thing, it was HUGE. It was easily 4 feet tall standing on it’s haunches.

When they paved TMP is disrupted the ecology and eliminated the European Hare’s natural food competitor, the Wood Turtle. It also disrupted the habitat of it’s natural predator, the Great Northern Loon.

Anyone from PBNation on here remember this: http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?t=3013140 ?
