Peters Perfect Again In
Oklahoma Arenacross
T
he 2021 Kicker AMA Aren-
across Series stopped in
Guthrie, Oklahoma for rounds
five and six of the series, January
22-23. The events were held at
the Lazy E Arena on Friday and
Saturday.
Phoenix Racing Honda Team's
Kyle Peters managed to keep
his win streak going by winning
all four Pro main events. Though
with each passing round they ap-
pear to be coming a little harder.
Team Babbitt's Monster En-
ergy Kawasaki rider Mike Alessi
is one of the few riders press-
ing hard to get that first win and
knock Peters off the top of the
podium. Alessi led for many laps
during a few of the main events
this weekend but hasn't been
able to make it happen yet.
On Friday, Isaac Teasdale
(Team Babbitt's Monster Energy
Kawasaki) charged out of the
gate to snag the holeshot and
take the early lead the 250 Pro
main event. Teasdale, who has
been battling a shoulder injury all
series, gave way to Peters.
Alessi then moved into second
place after starting the race in
the fourth spot.
Michael Hicks (KTM) contin-
ued his impressive evening as
he stayed in the top of the pack
throughout the entire race and
hung on to take the third spot by
motos end.
The 450 Pro main was Alessi's
race to lose. Alessi started hot
out of the gate with the holeshot
and held onto the lead for the
first nine laps over Peters. An
unfortunate mistake on Alessi's
