LOS ANGELES, March 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A series of historic NFTs created by Wendell Scott Ventures will be introduced and sold to commemorate the iconic and groundbreaking life and legacy of Wendell Scott. On December 1, 1963, Wendell Scott broke NASCAR's color barrier by becoming the first African American NASCAR driver to win a Grand National race, NASCAR's highest level. Until Bubba Wallace's win on October 4, 2021 there had never been another black driver to win a NASCAR race. To this day, Wendell Scott is the only black NASCAR team owner. Despite Wendell Scott's triumphant victory, he was never awarded a trophy for this win. It wasn't until August 28, 2021, nearly 60 years after his Jacksonville win that his trophy was posthumously awarded to his family. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
