Ran over a squirrel...
Ok so just this morning I had washed my car and dried most of it off. So I took a quick spin in the car to get all the rest of the water out of the edges of the doors / trunk / mirrors. I come around the turn by Sun Microsystems in Newark accelerating in 3rd then this squirrel pops out... I was thinking no, noo... too late... THUMP THUMP!! There was no blood at all but that little buggers carcass was sprawled upside down on the road behind me. I sort of felt bad but not really cause he jumped right under my left wheels. The bump wasn't as harsh as I thought it would be, I'm running AGX's w/ Eibach's set at 3 front, 6 rear and have sport ALK. Now both Subaru's in my family have caused fatalites. Here's a linky for the other one: https://www.i-club.com/forums/bay-area-15/whenz-next-windshield-group-buy-look-what-hit-my-dads-window-74756/

Gahd man.. I just got back from going to the bank on my way there this friggin dog runs out into the street in front of me. I swerved to avoid hitting it but I mean geeze! Twice in one day having animals run out in front of my car no more than 2 miles where each incident happened.
I hate running over animals. I've ran over 3 cats, 1 snake and 1 bunny.
Take my cousins advice.

"If I see an animal get in front of my car when I'm driving, I'm going to run it over. Why? Because it's either a dead animal or me possibly getting into an accident to avoid hitting it. I'm way too important to risk my life for an animal."
BTW, that doesn't apply for deer, cows, etc.

That's a nice false dichotomy.

Q: So how do you like you AGX's w/ Eibach's setup?
A: They handle really well I was able to take a squirrel on a sharp right bank in third w/o any understeer
Sorry I know it is mean of me to make fun of the little guy like that in his passing :sadwavey:
