Sting GW-1 first outing on new build, crashed in the rain during practice & DNS

A privateer Can-Am racer "The "Sting" was designed & built by John Collins & Gerald 'Jerry' Tune for driver Gary Wilson in 1974...
most of the parts came from Wilson's previous McLaren M8E which burned down

This was the final season of the original Can-Am series before it changed to Canadian - American Challenge Cup
