...especially when you hit one at 50 mph. Can't really see anything since I just got to work and it's dark, but I received a nice SES after I nailed the little bastard. Looks like I'll be doing some investigating tomorrow.

 

raccoons are always dope....i guess.

 

Raccoons are the best

 

What part did you hit it with? (which side)

 

Got him on my driver's side. Felt like he hit right under my feet.

 

What could it have dislodged? A lot of things are on the passenger side.

 

Driving from the passenger seat?

 

You might want to re-read what he wrote and actually pause after the question mark.

 

Yes. He has a JDM Maxima y0.

 

 

I has did a conversion

 

JDM RHD.

 

i hit a cow in my old car.. that was not fun

 

p.s. i had burgers for months LOL...




JK

 

I remember when I hit one and i had to buy anew fog lamp...

 

around here ... mass increase in roadkill .. luckily i haven't hit any of these bishes yet ... by the way .. SEmy2k2go has the coolest avatar in the history of avatars ... tim allen is the man..

 

Yes, yes it is a cool avatar. Maybe he will change it to tim holding a raccoon, would be appropriate for the week...

I would love to see what the code is...let us know when you find out.


Speaking of road kill...I was able to go clear over a coyote looking animal once. I was driving late with the x going back to her house and didn't see it until the last second. Couldn't go around it ecause I was in the middle lane with cars next to me. She screamed and all I could do was try to center the car in relation to the animal. I did and went straight over it, barely heard a bump. I'm assuming that bump was it hitting the RSB. Still can't believe that nothing further happened, must have been pretty flat by that point ...fun stuff.

 

I was on the highway doing 60 once and a dear ran into my car and hit the back driver's side door. All I saw was a blur of some creature running towards the car.

 

I hit a raccoon the other day with my driver-side tire, it was the nastiest sounding thing, because i was going 45, and the thing just scurried out before I could do anything. The only thing it did was break a plastic clip somewhere on my bumper, not I have a 1/2 gap between my headlight and bumper. It didn't crack anything, but there was some meat on the rim and undercarrage.

 

yum. ants ftw.

 

BBQ at your house!

 

LOL, You can only do that if you live somewhere in the Deep South; to possibly where "Deliverance 2" could be made lol......... "You gotta purdy mouuuth"

 

The authorities do don't have to know

 

when i had my first car (88 civic lx) i hit a live racoon at 85mph that was already halfway incorporated into the road. so i actually did him a favor. still though it was terrible because i cut his head off cuz my civic was real low and my bumper was a jagged piece of plastic due to a prior accident... i found most of its head wedged inbetween the oilsump and that plastic panel thing on the botom of you car that protects the engine for water splash or something.....it was gross.

 

I made an image to commemorate this moment...enjoy

 

You need to chop a be-headed raccoon on that picture as well.

 

I thought the one humping the front of the car was appropriate enough

 

It might have hit the O2 sensor. Just a thought. You should also check the EVAP canister in the back if it was your driver's side. I hit one in my max two years ago and had to get new clips for the shroud under the engine.

On a side note: I hit a kitten and killed it with my wife's IS250 a month ago. My wife is still bothered by that one... I swear I didn't have a choice at 70 mph!

 

Hahahaha at the picture. I hit a raccoon earlier this summer on my way home from my friends house. I was going about 40 and the damn thing ran out with no time for me to react. I hit it right at the passenger side fog which broke the bulb (not the housing, which ironically I had put in UNCRACKED fogs the day prior) and gave my bumper a nice spider-web paint crack about the size of the bastards head. My clear corner also popped out on the driver side for some reason . Fukcing rodents....

 

this is my favorite thread of all time

 

Pranged my miata into a leaping deer once. I drove around with the fur still stuck in the panel gaps for a few days. I caught a few people looking at the damage and then realizing what the hair was....

 

The other night i pwned a freaking possum with my left rear tire. Powerwasher FTW.

in the spirit of the season ..

 

A what ran into your car?

 

his dear .. his wife ...

 

Haha. When I went to UCF and came across the state to visit my jerkfaceidiot ex I used to take this road that was COVERED in frogs ALL THE TIME, especially after the hurricanes. Thankfully, I didn't have my Max then and my Buick (beast) took all that nastiness.

Haven't had a racoon encounter.

My Mom almost hit a cow when we first moved to Florida. She ended up in the ditch and we didn't get any beef, lol.

 

lol at this thread...

I have hit 2 deer within a month of each other... (none in the max but with the my old toyota) stupid animals... I now do about 20 under the speed limit at night when i know that they are going to be out... lol

 

Nice avatar FTW!

 

dead animals can be fun, had a guy ridin my way too close to me and i couldnt shake him off. saw a huge dead raccoon in the middle of my lane,one of those 20+lb ones too. waited til the last minute and swerved out of the way and watched him hit it. he should have just backed off.

75mph in a saturn+raccoon=bent rad support and cracked bumper

blasted country roads, hit more animals than i can count, only thing keeping me alive are my hids.
