NASCAR and the Coyotes...

Wow!

Joe Gibbs Racing driver Brad Coleman was testing a Gibbs NASCAR Sprint Cup Series car at Toyota Arizona Proving Grounds earlier this week and came onto the radio and told his crew something rather unusual.

"Guys, I hit a coyote," Coleman said.

Coleman was running close to 200 mph around the 10-mile test track when he saw the animal wander under the outside guardrail.
"I'm in the middle of the corner, and I'm doing like 190," Coleman said Friday at Nashville Superspeedway before practicing his Nationwide Series car. "I'm just cruising. You run the high line there, because that's where the most banking is. It's the high-speed lane. There's just a guardrail there like on the freeway.

"I see this thing, it must've been 100 feet in front of me, just jump out. Right when I saw it come out from under the guardrail, I was like, 'That's a coyote.'"

"It just started smoking like crazy," Coleman said. "And it smelled terrible. I didn't see anything in the mirror, so I was like, 'I wonder where it went?' I said, 'Guys, I hit a coyote. I'm going to come in because I think it screwed up the radiator. I think it clogged up the grille a little bit.'"

Holy ****. That is nasty.

My sister in law once had a problem with a really bad smell in her car. She said the first time or two she noticed it, she thought it was "in the air" and nothing to worry about. Once she realized it was happening more when her air conditioner was on, she took it to her dad to look at. When he opened the hood, he found what was left of a cat that had crawled in to keep warm and got caught in the belts. There were already maggots on the pieces when she finally got it checked out. Needless to say, the smell was fairly potent.
