Gruesome Collision with Bird images









Not my car, supposedly at the test track at speeds over 120 MPH.

OK let the duck and chicken jokes role.

I'll start: the driver saw it coming and ducked I guess he was chicken!

Wow. That did a lot of damage.

I got a pheasant once, at Thunderhill. But my speed at the time was only in the 80-90 range.

Yes. The bird did its best to try and squeeze in between the two. I had to replace the splitter.
