AMA Flat Track: Read Up & Check Out the Video on Monster Energy Kawasaki's Henry Wiles' 7th Peoria TT Win
Henry Wiles shows the form that earned him and his #17 Monster Energy/Jones Bros./Don's Kawasaki/Shift Racing-sponsored KX450F his 7th win in a row at the Peoria TT during qualifying for round 14 of the 2011 AMA Pro Flat Track Harley-Davidson Insurance Grand National Championship Series on Sunday, August 21. The 2-Time defending Singles Series Champ came back from knee surgery in late April to again show the rest of the entrants in The Rolling Thunder Show that he is a major force to be reckoned with on the infamous Peoria amphitheater track.
Even with what was described by him as an 'ill handling' machine he was able to lead all 25 laps of the National main event to win every race since the 2004 running of the long-time event on the series' calendar. Don't look for that streak to stop anytime soon!
