Default Is this deer incident with a Corvette at Summit Point new?

I just saw this uploaded today to youtube by "zandfard":

(fast forward to 1:45)

I didn't see much in the comments field for the video so I'm not sure when it happened. Anybody else have more detail?

I'm about 95% sure this happened in the Spring of this year with the Riesentoter Region. I was working pit out. The car was repairable, mostly cosmetic. I distinctly remember the driver telling us he had to go to the paddock and wash the deer sh*t off his face.

I think the 2013 date is he year of the Corvette, but I'm not enough of a Corvette guy to know that from the video.

The two videos posted are of different Vettes. The on BP posted is the one from 2012. The one Jim posted, I'm not sure. Could be this year.
