Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia is notorious for wildlife intrusions. A varmint chicane can appear at any time and any place but the favorite spot seems to be just before Turn 1, coincidentally the fastest spot on the track.
That annual Race, Drift, Beer and Boobs festival that is Hyperfest took place over the week end and while most had a great time, the driver of this C5 Z06 was probably not in the mood for venison.

If he would have looked down the track he'd would have seen the deer running wildly with no place to go. He had at least 6+ seconds to take action; but when you are too busy wondering what kind of cool wave to give the car you are overtaking...
