Default Deer attacked my GTO and my buddies Z28!!!

So long story short me and my buddy were coming back from the track tonight and a herd of deer decided to unite with us.

Total damage inflicted:
GTO- Driver fender, Hood, headlight, front bumper, and rear driver side corner panel all smashed to bits.
Z28- Driver fender, Hood, headlight all smashed
Deer- 4 killed (bastards)

Messed up part is we were going 40mph at the time of impact, they ran right into the side of us. Funny part is two state troopers were sitting in a gas station parking lot 20 yards away watching the deer when it happened and witnessed the whole thing.

So between the 87 in a 55 ticket I got on the way to the meet, and the thousands of dollars worth of damage coming back from, this is the best day of my life! And to think my birthday is on tuesday....

Yea I ran at the track, it was the worst night ever. It was so humid and wet nobody hooked, a couple cars hit the walls, and it was so bad they would let anyone run that was faster than 14's for a while lol.

One guy in our group who ran a 12.1 at 121 last time had a best time of 12.9 @ 115 tonight. Track prep was horrible it was like racing on ice.

I hit a deer while doing 35 mph when I was in high school. I was in my 69 Camaro and it caused some serious damage to the front end. Basically pushed the passenger side fender back 2" onto the door, busted grille, headlight mount, upper/lower valence etc....

what a mess

This happened in the middle of an urban area too, on Bay Area Blvd right next to the bowling alley near I45
