I should upload the aftermath pics @ full throttle. Since I didn't hit it dead-on and kinda clipped it while it was jumping through the air, minor damage was done to the passenger headlight, grille, and hood. Bumper miraculously wasn't even touched. I think it flew over my car and the deer's head bumped into my roof cuz I heard this *THUMP* overhead. Scary as shiz esp when they jump right into you. I hit em so hard he flew across 2 lanes and landed on the other side of the road onto the grass.
But that wasn't even the worst part. The worst part is when you're traveling at that speed, on a backroad, and your shattered roof flips up and obscures your vision while going 75+mph. Actually, we were all doing a late night run that night, here's a vid:

This was taken a few cars back, you can see all of us stopping at the end and pulling over into a neighborhood after I whacked that sucker.

Its like 12 or 14 bolts. By the time you're on the 4th one your arm/forearms are screaming.

Clay, what do you normally drive? I can't wait for it to be warmer outside. We need to get a big meet planned so everyone has enough time to know when it is, and hopefully we can all be there.

We have a cool little flap on ours that you unbolt so you don't have to remove the whole tray when you do oil changes. But mine got caught on some ice and ripped it back so there's some dragging and I'm either going to cut it off, or just remove the whole thing and replace it with one of those metal ones.
