I have not hit a bird (or anything else - Thank God) with my Cobra, but was with Dave White last year at Midstates Spring Fling in Neb. when he hit a bird.
Dave's side of the story is that the bird hit him. Hit him right at the opening of the hood scoop and created a big mess all over Dave's 427. Also got all over the windsheild. What a mess and it was just a little bird.
In Colorado we are used to getting the bird when driving down I-25, but did not think that we would get the bird in Neb. driving on a country road.
BTW - If you have not made a trip to Neb to meet Bob Kallio and Rich Anderson and their Crews, you are missing some of the nicest people in not only the Cobra Business, but also in business anywhere. And when up there, swing by and see George Anderson. You will not forget the visit.
