My old boss was hit by deer 3 times, side of pickup
Wow, that's a magnet too. We had one charge us, was in Suburban towing RV, huge bump/bang that impacted somewhere between bumper and front of RV, we pulled over, deer had ran into woods and we couldn't find a trace of impact, surprised, thought I'd have a busted fiberglass corner on RV or dented rear quarter panel, nope
 
wow that's expensive.. i wouldn't think a deer would be worth repairing...
That place looks like it has seen some things :)

A few year back we were overwhelmed with foxes. Township went thru and cleaned up.

I spotted 4 cubs running around in the back end yesterday afternoon. See if I can get a few pictures.
Between health and weather the back end is a mess
Lots of places to hide out.
 
Had a friend from work . Deer ran into the side of her truck. She got out to see if it was ok. Deer tried to get up and kick her in the leg . Had to call an ambulance gash was pretty deep and long. Never go near them. Lesson well learned!
 
I got my headlight bucket today. Turbine68rt from FBBO sent it no charge. He said he appreciates all we do for the site. That was a very nice gesture and much appreciated.

There an actual press release on that? Because someone posted that 3 weeks ago and the owners of National Trail Raceway screamed all over social media that it had not been sold and was not up for sale.
 
Good afternoon everyone. I have been taking apart the car since yesterday and was back at it this morning at 0545. The guy was supposed to come over to help me adjust the valve lash, however, his water heater went bad, and hopefully tomorrow. Anyway, I am glad he didn't make it today because boy was it a struggle..................

-Yesterday, I removed the passenger shock and pulled the passenger valve cover. I have done this before, so I knew what I was dealing with. Not too difficult......
I went to pull the MC off the firewall and still did not have room to pull the driver valve cover, so left it to mess with this morning after some more research and a clearer head.

I called Chris yesterday and we talked about it.
-So this morning at 0545 I pulled the rod from the pedal under the dash( PIA, by the way, no room) I thought ok, the hard part done...............NO did not matter how much I tried to negotiate the valve cover would not fit past. Also I could not pull the MC away with the rod out of the firewall due to the valve cover blocking it.:mob::BangHead:. After a long time trying to figure a way, I was done and cut that BEOTCH right off.....................Success, MC and valve cover removed. :lol:

I have already ordered a new MC and several other parts and pieces including a bench bleed kit and a brake blled kit.
