Pleasure Riders Hillclimb Peters' Plans Pan Out at Pleasure Riders He By BUD NORTHRUP CAYUGA, IN, JUNE 24 Matt Peters from Neoga, Illinois, picked up his first Fast Time trophy at the Pleasure Riders hillclimb on his hot-running KTM 380. Peters didn't waste any time setting the mark, as he new over the top of the rough and rutted 150foot hill in 3.877 seconds on his first ride in the 400cc class, taking his second win of the weekend and posting a time no one would match the rest of the day. Paul Hackbarth, just as he was the night before, was Peters' closest challenger, with a 4.085-second time on his KTM360. Peters missed having a perfect day, as he had to settle for second place in the 250cc class, his 4. I 92-second run on his CR250 being one-tenth of a second slower than the winning time set by Mark Goodman Jr. on his KX250. Jon Creek was only five-thousandths of a second behind Peters for third, with a fine 4.197-second run on his RM250. Goodman was a double winner, also taking the win in the supercompetitive 750cc class. Riding his Kawasaki triple, the young gun from Indianapolis posted a 3.927-second firstround time that held up for the win. The "Wild Child: Tom Daniels, unleashed one of his patented full-throttle attacks on his "Wild Thing" and screamed up the hill, trying to start another fast-time streak. The wild triple broke traction and endoed over the top, tossing Daniels over the bars and then slamming him into the ground. Daniels suffered serious injuries to his shoulder and underwent surgery to repair the damage on June 26. He is wished a speedy recovery by all and will hopefully be back on the circuit soon, as no one rides harder or thrills the crowd more than this guy. Daniels' time of 3.980 seconds held up for second, with Lane Schultz, Wade Schultz and Boots Weber· all Yamaha twin riders - filling out the top five. Butch Fetters, Matt Peters' brother-in-law, joined those in the winners' circle with an excelleot 3.900-second run on his KX500 in the 600cc class to snatch the win from the grasp of "Fast Andy" Fortner, who was sitting on a 3.910-second first-round time on his Honda. District 15 hiliclimb referee Scott Petty showed he was still fast with a 3.954-second run on his Honda fOJ third, and "Rocketman" Randy Trosper joined the three-second club on his CR500 with a 3.963-second time for fourth. Lane Schuitz just missed breaking the three-second barrier with a 4.003·second run for fifth place on his Honda.
