		Often, Wendell would be forced to remove the tires and/or radiator from his tow truck and put them on his race car so he could run on that particular evening’s card.

		Scott faced the kind of verbal taunting one might expect a fl athlete to receive in the South of the 1940s and 50s, but continued to do well on dirt tracks throughout the region (only the Darlington Track, where the "Rebel 500" was held every fall, did not allow him to race).
		Eventually, Scott would be forced off the racing circuit, not by threats and taunts of redneck fans, but by his inability to garner a corporate sponsorship.
		Wendell Scott, though with proven ability that would have, over time, won the hearts of fans as did fl athletes in other sports, left NASCAR in 1973.
