Deer is a specialty in Germany. Served with cranberry sauce and lightly salted potatoes, maybe with a brown sauce with fresh wild mushrooms. hmmmm.

Lunch time.

Isn't there a bit of plane missing behind the cockpit? How do you hit a bird with a simulator?

I love venison, wild pig, and duck. My free time doesn't allow me enough bandwidth to keep my freezer full unfortunately.

You don't live in Oregon. It's one of the 4 food groups here. High priced gourmet restaurants specialize in it for us rednecks who can't shoot straight.

Venison is definitely NOT one of those "tastes just like chicken (or beef)" meats. Quite frankly, it sucks.

The f40 probably launched the freakin deer 40 feet in th air. the hood is like a ramp.
That durango got owned by that deer. Ouch. I wonder what happened to the driver as it looks like he had a deer in his lap when all was said and done.

If I remember right, the dear deer jumped off that bridge in the background. Let me see if I can find the site...

BTW. What are the differences between Beer nuts & Deer nuts?

Beer nuts are for free & Deer nuts are just under a buck... (Sorry, couldn't help it)

I worked as a lumber jack in Germany for 5 years. On my very first day, we find a dead deer that had been hit and continued to run into the woods where it collapsed. I couldn't understand why its body was twitching until my partner moved its skin with a stick; there were thousands of maggots....

I bet that f-40 needed a lot of "doe" to fix it.

No "butts" about that. Musta cost a few "bucks"

What's the last thing that went through that deer's mind when it hit the F40?

I hit a deer about a month ago in my peasantmobile (Mustang GT). Nailed him at 35-40MPH and flipped him over the hood onto the roof of the Blazer behind me. Had it not been for a 3" stress crack in the hood, the only damage would have been a cracked headlight and blown foglight. Something to be said for American iron....

She does appear to have the stance of a "goose". Rob has a "why does this always happen to me" look. Personally, I'd be grinnin'!

My wife hit a deer in my Honda Accord. She was doing 80; the deer hit the hood dead center and flew over the top. $4000 in damage plus hotel and rental car, all paid by insurence

Never hit one in my Europa and if I ever do, I doubt I'd live to tell about it. It's the only car where the passengers protect the frame instead of vice versa.

Rob,


You let them touch your car? Did you wipe off the evidence before your wife saw the hand of another woman?

The real story of the Rob pic....

Sweating and nervous, he approached the wild game from upwind. He'd never been this close to anything like this before. He dangled the jewelry in the sunlight while cooing "Ferrari", yet they looked away, uninterested. He snuck up on them from behind and managed to insert himself into their herd. Suddenly, someone yelled "Is that Brad Pitt?", attracting the rapt attention of both Hunter and Prey. The photographer captured the moment.

Someone hit one with their 308. If they want everyone talking about it then they can bring it up themselves in detail, it's none of my business really. I just am bringing it up to say that the 308 did pretty damn well IMO. It wasn't a deer through the windshield hit that would total the car, but still the side of the car where it hit was better off than I would have thought it would be.

It was a sunny clear day. I approached the three creatures with caution as they were in defensive stance. I talked in my soothing voice as not to spook them. My Ferrari escaped without major damage, a few paw and rump prints, but I didn't mind. I appreciated my close contact with nature in company of my Ferrari.

Though i'm not a Ferrari owner (the new 1/18 scale Enzo is all i can afford), i still feel i'm a fortunate person...

About 2 weeks ago, i hit a deer in my '93 sentra (with 193+ thousand miles on it), and i incurred only minimal damages compared to what i hear a deer can do to your car (my expense will only be about 150 "bucks"- ok, that was bad)... i was fairly-excessively exceeding the speed limit on a one-lane road in Greenpoint, on Long Island, at around 2 in the morning... you would swear i was bowling for venisen the way i nailed this poor animal... like i was the champion driver at a Bambi Derby... evidently, the deer survived, for after my baby came to a screeching halt and the dust finally settled, i looked back and saw nary a woodsy animal... my question is this: has any exotic owner (Ferrari or otherwise) come in contact with a deer (or other animal) while driving your exotic...?

just wondering...
