That sucks big time...

It looks like some blood n' guts got into the car by the way the driver was shaking his hand, looked like he was trying to get it off him...

A 500bhp Evo IX is hit by a seagull during a top speed run on the MLR 30 to 130mph day at RAF Marham. Indicated speed is 180mph.

^ I am assuming he was around that 120-130 mark.

I hit a sparrow the other day. It left chunks of flesh and feather on my bumper and damn near destroyed by fog light.

This was on a whole another level, though. Dang.

ask and you shall receive:

http://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?...39229492036139

They also show what the outside of the windshield looks like afterwards

Poor Car...and bird, the Seagull probably had no idea what happened
