OUCH!! I'm trying to figure out what track that is since it is listed as in Scranton PA. It's only about an hour and half from me.

Crazy. Never thought about critters on the track as a hazard.

I'd be pissed! If my car gets destroyed on the track and I get nothing from insurance then it better be worth it!

Hit a deer at 55 with the 1LE...it was awful. But on a track, at 100+? Hot damn, I can't even imagine. Both the car, and the animal exploded!

Yes. Dark Spot in my life. $15,000 in damage to the front end, airbags deployed. Luckily, no frame or suspension damage.

Another reason for track day insurance, on the east coast, rabbits, feral hogs, deer and other animals @ speed is a huge issue. He is lucky the deer didn't go through the windshield! scary to watch.
