Echeconnee TT
Macon, GA
06/3/2001

"Digger" Doug Gust pulled the holeshot and rode off to the main event win. Tim Farr, on his Baldwin Motorsports 250R, hung on Gust's every move for a few laps but faded with a minor get off on lap 7 of the 20 lap race. Jeremiah Jones quickly advanced on Farr's mistake and rode in Gust's shadow for the rest of the race to take second. Shane Hitt rounded out the podium finishers.

*Approximately 30 minutes after the race, Tim Farr noticed that the Georgia Promoters Group score keepers had him in the 17th position on the posted finals. After the race many pro racers and people on hand reported that Tim Farr advanced himself through the pack and was on the current lap in the 7th position, not a lap down like the scorers had him listed. After some investigating, Donny Banks changed Farr's overall position to 7th place. The following morning there was a verbal protest with referee Tom Prendergast, claiming that no protests were made in the official 30 minute protest time after the main event. With that, the person believes they should have been awarded the 7th place position that was originally given to them the night prior. Tom Prendergast investigated the matter and changed the overall back to what the scorers had as final. This put Farr back to 17th position -- giving him a total of only 4 points instead of the 14 points that he feels he earned by working his way through the pack.
