Default Look what hit/splattered the Vette today

I was driving in traffic and saw two geese flying up to my left and they were crossing to the right. I thought to slow down and hope they pass quickly. Then I thought to speed up, so I gunned it a little. Then I thought the sound of that will probably scare the crap out of them. Whether it did or not, I'll bet they were laughing pretty good about their target practice. I'm sure they went back and told their geese buddies all about it and are still laughing.

Awh man, that's so gross, I love how you took pictures though haha, my camaro got covered by seagulls the other day, at least 20+ hits while I was in school and came out to front to back covered but those geese left a dirty one on you out of all cars

Wiping doesn't work for that splatter. The Vette needs to be washed, polished, and waxed. Put it back in the garage so that never happens again.

I think we should all post pictures of our Vettes with the most crap on them... Then post up the pic of the dirty rags we used to wipe them off. Nice. I just took a dump... Wanna see it??

Oh wait, I think this is the first thread where the pictures make the thread worthless.

Let us all thank God that elephants can't fly.
