MONSTER ENERGY AMA SUPERCROSS SERIES VOL. 51 ISSUE 6 FEBRUARY 11, 2014 P57 The Motosport.com/Fly Racing- backed privateer has been put- ting the hurt on a lot of factory riders this year, and this weekend he passed Andrew Short, Justin Barcia and Eli Tomac along the way. And he did it the hard way after going through the LCQ, which he won. "I think it actually worked to my advantage having to come through the LCQ, since I had a lot more laps to get the track down and figure out those lines," said Peick. "The main event was good, we started 15th, which wasn't ideal, but we worked our way up to the top 10. After that I just kind of found my place on the track and got a rhythm. I saw Short, Barcia and Tomac in front of me and I just started picking them off." Peick took full advantage of one section of track that other riders were struggling with. "There was a kind of slow sec- tion of the track that I was capital- izing on, and that's where I made up the most time," said Peick.
