    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
    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 thought, 'That's a coyote.'"

    "The
    engine started smoking like crazy," Coleman said. "And it smelled
    terrible. I didn't see anything in the mirror, so I thought, 'I
    wonder where the coyote 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.'"

    Ha ha ha! A few years ago we were running an night endurance race up at Willow Springs and we were pitted right in front of a turbo Porsche. I swear they must have pulled a rabbit out of his oil cooler every freakin' pit stop! I don't know if the turbos quited the car down so the fluffy little bunnies couldn't hear him coming or what, but man what a mess! That coyote thing is hilarious!

    Guess the Acme rocket skates fizzled out.

    If youve lived in the country for any length of time you would realize that a coyote is on the good riddance list.

    Yep, the only thing they are good for is target practice.

    X2

    up here were now seeing what they are calling a "super coyote"......the coyotes have bred with the wolves and now your seeing an animal with the ferociousness of a wolf with the "brazen ness" (if you will) towards humans of a coyote......not good

    farmers and such want to have a bounty put on the coyotes....the animal rights j offs say "oh that wont work".....I call BS.....ask the North American Buffalo if extermination works.
