Jaytee, 'the stinger' is the car Andy Haisell was running with a blown Hemi 10 yrs ago. Memorable for having big teeth over the 3 hole buzzard catcher windows and Ant Hill Mob graphics ..

Straight from the commentators sheet, the 'Stinger' Bantam altered (PDP Racing) is owned by Dave 'Two Lanes' Armstrong. Powered by a 468 ci Chevy Dave has run a PB of 9.4 today (Sunday).

I've probably said it before and I'll probably say it again but I love the 'Anxious' pop
The body on the Stinger altered looks as if it really needs to get reassociated with a big blown motor and play fuel altered...

And a quick Google shows up a Richard Heeps photo:

Somehow I entirely passed this car by - anyone know when it was running and how well it did? The photo above states 1997 which was a busy year for me.

Good to see your dad at the wheel again Jerry,I hope he had a good time, he must be the longest active racer in the UK I would guess, 40 years?
