King posted a heat victory and two second place finishes the best performance that the mechanically plagued team has mustered all year. Alas, unspecified problems have forced the team to call it a day.
Weve just come up with an issue that we cant overcome right now some gremlins that just wont get off the boat for us," King said.
King said the team will regroup and be ready next weekend for SeaFair in Seattle.
The WD by the U-3 bumps consolation heat winner Bryan Perkins and the U-50 onto the front row.

The final remains scheduled for 4:55 p.m.
