Something I didn't expect on the tracks

Last weekend I was at my local race track (Portland Raceway) It was my 3rd or 4th race of the night. I lined up agaist a 99-02 V6 Mustang 5 speed... I was in the left lane and had him all the way but right after I cross the 1/4 mark a racoon jumped out infront of me and I didn't have enough time to stop so I hit it probably around 75-80mph. They had to stop the races for about 5-10 minutes to clean up what's left of the racoon... I looked at my car but all I saw was little blood and the rubber piece on the bottom of my front bumper was pulled off a bit (I put it back on later) good think there was no major damage. Oh, I ended up beating the mustang by about a car lenght. Looks like the Mustange and the Racoon got owned...
