Default Deer!!!!!!!!!!

Almost got myself a big one this morning with S on Moorse Rd. This one came within about 10 feet of my front end and surprised the you know what out of me. I could swear that this deer was big enough to walk over my front end. The deer seem to be all over the place on the east side of town and it isn't even fall yet.

David,

Hit one myself about 15 years ago - did nothing pretty to my car.

Don't EVEN want to think what would happen if you hit one with the top down. They have been known to come through the windshield, and with the top down, it could just slide right over the top and in there with you!

Keep your eyes peeled!

They are usually most active at dawn and dusk! Or at least that is when we can first see them.
Hit one once, luckily it went over the car, and it took out the radiator. Middle of winter, Pa. Pike and walking damn was it cold.

I hit a deer coming back from Chicago last year. Not a pretty site.. especially for the passenger who had glass from the passenger window in his lap.

Off topic, but where are all the S2k boys at? I'm down in Columbus for the weekend visiting friends and I've seen 0 S2k's out. Actually, of passed by 2 NSX drivers, but no S2k to be seen

There are deer all over N.E. Ohio as well. Saw a Doe and 2 fawn the other day on Chagrin River Road. Luck I saw them before I wiped out their whole fam and in the process their taking out my car, me, and my son..... whew.

I think that if a Deer Detector was invented, the inventor would never have to work again

And in response to Mocky57 - where are all the S2K owners up here - I am on the east side of Cleveland and I havent seen one since I got mine in May 03


More soon,

Mike

hehehe..right..
actually, i picked up some 303, lexol shampoo/conditioner for a friend down here who is picking up his spa sometime this week or next, so i'm down here for the weekend. was wondering...
is there any store that sells plexus around here? i couldn't find some locally up in c-town, and since i've been stricken with the pre'-02 plastic window, i need some badly. (peaking out the window to see what's behind me when the top is up...not fun).

I bought some Plexus, but I just ordered online. I haven't seen it in any normal auto parts stores, that is for sure. Not sure about more specialized shops.

ic... it's weird.. up in cleveland, we have a local murray's auto parts store that sells 303, lexol, and other pretty nice stuff.. but no plexus. i just feel like i'm wasting money paying some dumb shipping/handling fee for one bottle...
