They were running down an airfield's runway, and got into a bird at high speed. we call that BASH: (Bird Air Strike Hazzard) in the aviation world.
There is a reason airfields are closed during Bird Severe conditions, they thought it would be a good time to take advantage of the closed runway and now they know better...

Those seagulls aught to know better.

Cody Red 03-01-2007 06:27 PM

Ooh Asta! That's insane. Sucks for both sides (seagull, driver).

I doubt they were going 180MPH, but it still made a hell of a mess.

chrism 03-01-2007 06:53 PM

oops.....thats kinda funny

Brettus 03-01-2007 06:53 PM

That bird was turned into an evo-lution solution

WhiteDealershipRice 03-01-2007 07:14 PM

^^I think it was more of a reverse Evo-lution
Yes seagulls are the BOTTOM of the food chain

They SH*T on everything.

Can an evo even GO 180?

rAte 03-01-2007 08:47 PM

I bet that was 180 km/hr since the wheel was on the wrong side ala Topgear. I don't know of a stock geared EVO that can go 180 MPH...

PhotoMunkey 03-01-2007 09:36 PM

Run, roadrunner, run!

Raptor2k 03-01-2007 10:24 PM

LMAO.

I am evil.

CarAndDriver 03-01-2007 11:27 PM

Reminds me of the Mythbuster's today that was on TV that was testing the difference in thawed and frozen chicken impacts.

careful costanza, you wouldn't want to end up fitting the bill for the tiny instruments they'll need to operate, :D:

XDEEDUBBX 03-02-2007 12:54 AM

ok that was pretty gross

It's possible but unlikely, in theory mine will bounce of the rev limiter a little over 170. An Evo VIII with a flash that raises the rev limiter to 7800 rpms (7700 is common) would hit about 180 and a Evo MR with a flash could hit 183 with a 7700 rev limit.
