my 3/S vs a fox at 60

Well I was cruizing around tonight with a friend and we were just south of hastings. We were headed down to drop off some parts and what not. All of a sudden running out of a field that was on my right hand side is a fox. Needless to say there was nothing I could do. For a split second I saw it and then I definitly felt it. It is the worst feeling knowning there wasnt really anything I could do.

So about a mile later we stop to check the damage. (sorry no pics yet its late) It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. It looks like my fog light took most of the damage and is pushed way back into my bumper. From the impact my bumper is spyderwebbed in a few spots around the headlight and the sidemarker. The sidemarker is cracked. But the worst thing to come of this is that I litteraly knocked the crap out of this fox. There is a glob of crap on my bumper.

So I guess the in the morning I'll be cleaning up the car and seeing if there is any furthermore damage.

Son, I might be a moderator on MNSC, but this isn't MNSC. Leave your childish noobness at the door, please.

What did I do to piss you off??

I thought we had a designated place to talk about racing, and that it wasn't appreicated here in the off topic section. Sorry if I was wrong, I don't write a whole lot of street racing stories...

Yeah, I saw no harm in any comments, except for Matt's. What's the fuss about? We know the rules.

Yeah, you said "I thought it was gonna be a racing vid against a mustang"

I agreed with you, and said I was gonna put up an IBTL pic, then you called me a noob and started talking about mnsc, I guess I really did miss something. Almost every board I am on, mnsc included, has rules against posting about illegal stuff, whether it is street racing, pirated software, child porn or whatever.

I was making a joke about the internet, and you got offended for no reason thinking I was talking trash about your mod position over at mnsc for whatever reason.

This may shock you, but I really don't give 2 shits about that board or it's policies, and I certainly don't care enough to start talking trash about it here.

I however feel that MNSC is retarded. What they call Sport Compact, we call Winter Beater.



Can a brother get a lock?

Indeed. This thread would have have made me happier if it was a racing video. Stupid fox.

I'll snap some and get them up here soon. I really thought it would be worse for the sound it made when I hit it.
