Basically, The fast qualifier has the option to start in the rear (26th) and if he/she can win the race there is a $10,000 bonus on top of the $7500 to win. IF he elects not to take the challenge, then it will be offered to the 2nd, 3rd or 4th qualifier. Only one of the top 4 qualifiers can accept the challenge. There must be atleast 26 cars in the field.

Bryan was a long-time St. Pete/DeSoto/Inverness regular who started out (I believe) crewing on Jim Fenton's "FOUR" Late Model. Bryan built a "Sportsman" car in the early '80s and worked his way up into a Late Model. He drove for Big Three Truck Salvage, which is/was a huge "junkyard" in the area.

In the mid-'80s, he got the ride in our car, the Bob Kirk-owned #12 which had been piloted before by names like Reutimann, Childers, Scarborough, Reagan, Billy Gill, Shorty Stuart, Paul Conners, Don Denney, and Dave Pletcher. He drove our car from about mid-1984 through the summer of 1986, when he got hurt in a racing incident. Bryan won quite a few features for us, and was one of the *nicest* guys you'd ever meet on or off the track.

He passed away after a construction accident, I believe, in 2001.

Thanks for the quick response. Looking forward to next weekend. I heard Shelnut broke his arm in the crash at Desoto. Thanks again.

For those that are not familiar with Bryan K. Wescott, Sr. here’s a bio that we put in the program on the first BKW Memorial Race I organized for him back on the 10th anniversary of his passing in 2011.

Jim, do you have any pictures of Bryan's #XII from early on (you say 1979 in this article)? I don't think I ever saw that car.

Also, Bryan was hurt driving our #12; not the "XII" as stated. I have the pics to prove it.
