was it a groundhog?

A couple of seasons ago a deer jumped over Tim Biemersderfers head as he was going into the shute at Summit. Unbelievable!

I'm pretty sure Opie Caylor hit a deer at Road Atlanta a couple of years ago.

I've seen gophers at Nelson Ledges on track before.  Certainly freaks ya out when stuff like that happens.

You bet it was a groundhog! Me and a couple other riders almost hit the dam thing running across the front straight, as it was running for fear of its life.
