Stinger Monster Truck Set to Debut In Sheridan, Wyoming

(Rettew Motorsports Press Release – Pequea, PA) – Rettew Motorsports is proud to announce the beginning of a new journey – the Stinger monster truck is making a return after a long absence from the sport, and is running an exciting schedule with many promoters to begin a nationwide tour of destruction.

The new Stinger monster truck owned by Zane Rettew.

After many years working as everything from a crew member to an event director for monster trucks, Rettew decided to take the plunge and make Rettew Motorsports a reality with help from wife Lindsey and many others.

“We couldn’t be more excited to start out with the Stinger truck,” said owner/driver Zane Rettew. “The response has already been overwhelming, and we’ve been working hard to make sure we are ahead of schedule and our debut is a success!”

Part of working hard has already paid off in the form of a successful test session with the truck. Rettew put the Stinger through its paces and came away impressed.

“The support has been phenomenal, and I can’t thank everyone enough for it,” Rettew said. “We’re about integrity—running hard, and being professional–building this thing from the ground up and staying true to the success of the Stinger name.”

“I’ve had this dream ever since I was a little kid, and once I got the first hit under my belt, it felt great,” he said. “After some adjustments, I really started hitting everything hard. I can’t wait for Springport!”

It all begins in Sheridan, Wyoming June 11th for a fantastic show at the Sheridan County Fairgrounds. Stay tuned for updates and be sure to head to Sheridan for an awesome new look at Stinger!
