Southeastern Fall Classic Shootout Best of Georgia/Alabama Championship Mot8cross Series Final Round: Lazy River Motocross Ranch Garrett Gunnin' at Lazy River There was some bar banging as Martin slipped by Swaney in a turn, but Swaney charged. back to get alongside Martin in the next corner and force him wide; Martin went down. Then a hard-charging Albritton made a challenge for the lead. Coming into the rhythm section on Swaney's rear wheel, Albritton piloted his YZ426F past for the lead. Again, the camelback before the finish provided the opportunity for a pass, and Swaney outjumped Albritton to take the lead by a wheel. Then a last-second banzai burst into the rhythm section, where the finish line was, gave Albritton the win. Swaney got a hardearned second in the moto, with Martin third. Whitmire had a nasty get-off in the rhythm section that left his left arm broken. In the 250cc Open A contest, Martin finished first, followed by Albritton, Swaney, Hoffman and Askew. Swaney put in a stellar performance in the 125cc A class. He led every lap of the second moto and took a 1-1 score on the day, with Dustin Higdon second, Askew third, Randy Thomas fourth, and Whitmire fifth. D.C.

BY PAC LEWIS CHATSWORTH, GA, NOV. 18 azy River Motocross Ranch hosted the final round of both the Best of Georgia/Alabama Championship Motocross Series and the Southeastern Fall Classic Shootout. Many class championships came down to the last race, and many positions were still up for grabs. Suzuki/Yamaha of Dalton rider Mike Garrett had an exceptional day, except for his last moto. Scoring a clean sweep through the Over 30 and Over 35 motos, Garrett had a harder time in the Over 25 class. In the first Over 25 moto, Garrett led every lap but the final one, as Tommy Martin slipped by on the inside of a turn to take the win, with Garrett second. Garrett was in control in the second moto and poised to take his third overall on the day when a slight mistake in the rhythm section caused him to go down hard. Martin took the win and the overall, followed by Michael Hoffman, Chad Anderson, Kevin Yerby and Garrett, who finished fifth on the day after his crash. Garrett had better luck in his earlier motos, winning the Over 30 class over Joel Sewell, Steven Wilbanks, Brian Compton and Thomas Bryant, and the Over 35 class ahead of Martin (who finished second in both motos), Sewell, Glenn Bates and Mike Henderson. Henderson won the Over 40 moto, with Billy Scoggins second, Bobby Staggs third, Chuck Greer fourth and William Stoller fifth. The 250cc Open A class would prove to be the most competitive class of the day. Josh Askew took the first-moto holeshot and led the first three laps until a mistake in a sandy corner let Martin and Josh Whitmire slip by. In a dash to the checkers, Whitmire attempted to outjump Martin on a tricky camelback before the finish, and although he did outjump Martin, the latter took the checkers by a wheel. In moto two, Kris Swaney took the holeshot, followed closely by Martin, Whitmire and Chad Albritton. L 42 JANUARY 16, 2002' cue • e n e _ s The 125cc C contest was another win for Albers, who, since moving up _ to the 125cc machine, has been notching quite a few victories on his Suzuki.

He won overalls in the 85cc (9-13) and 85cc (7-11) classes.
