NEOGA, IL
The Central Illinois Motorcycle Club hosted the last hill climb of the 2009 season for AMA Districts 15 and 17. Matt Peters (above) enjoyed a perfect night, winning all three classes he entered and taking the Fast Time of the Day award.
Peters' first win came in the 250cc class, in which his 3.001-second first-round ride would have been good for the win, but he beat that himself with an even better 2.981-second run on his CR250 in the second round. Joe McGurer was second with a 3.22-second effort. Dylan Brady was third.
In the 450cc class, Peters' first-round 2.756-second time had to hold up for him, as he crashed at 97 feet on his second run on his KTM 380. That time did hold up for the win, and was the fastest time in the first round for all riders up to that point. Bobby Senn claimed second with a 2.971-second ride on his Yamaha. Dan Groth was third.
Peters set a new fast time on his first ride in the 600cc class with a blistering 2.627-second clock-stopper on his KX500. That time would hold up not only for the class win but also as the fastest time of the night. His 2.643-second time on his second ride was second fastest of the day. "Fast Andy" Fortner claimed second with a 2.693-second time on his Honda, and Josh Denson was third in 2.940 seconds.
"Jammin' Joe" McGurer enjoyed a double-class-win evening. He claimed the 85cc Senior Mini-class win with a 3.335-second time on his KX85, which was also good for the Youth Fast Time. His second win came in the 125cc class, with a 3.346-second run. "Dangerous Dylan" Brady took second on his Honda.
In other Youth-class action, Reece Hutton won the 50cc class, with Levi Peters second; Peters won the 65cc class, with Andrew Fortner second; and Jarred Brown was the best of the 85cc Junior Minis, with Clayton Hirsch second.
