I have run over rattlesnakes in Medford, missed deer on the return road at night in Salt Lake, but never have I see and antelope at the track. I heard he was up and running the next day.

They are trying really hard to shut that track down. We accually switched our charger over to a street car because of all the rumors, and threats to shut it down. Its litterally right out of town along the interstate. Reminds me of an old city park, just at 200 mils per hr. Those antelopes are DUMBER THAN S#$T!! Kasey

Hit a buzzard racing the backroads near Clinton OK. Ugly site. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4J3K94cRC1c

I hit 2 deer (same time) on I-75 doing about 80mph(I did hit the brakes and lost some speed) but both were jello when I dragged them off the road... did $4000 damage to the car... thank god they have skinny legs but 1 almost came through the windshield ... I layed over in the seat... still drove it home

I was chasing down a slow car and I seen the frog make BIG strides to get across, but I wasnt gonna swirve for a frog (sorry PITA) and it tore one of the snorkles plum off the bumper. Part of the frog was still up in the hose. I DID win the round though.
