Bud McKay, in the West Sound Electric Presents GEICO of Lakewood, waves to the crowd after finishing third in the final heat at Silverdale Thunder Aug. 16. McKay, who won the high points title in the series in 2006, 2007 and 2008, finished second in high points in 2009. McKay had the West Sound Electric Presents GEICO of Lakewood in first place throughout the majority of the season, including leading the points up to the last heat of the last race of the season in San Diego. But a 5th place finish in the final in San Diego ended the team's hopes for a fourth-consecutive title run. Congratulations to new series high points champion Kevin Eacret. McKay and Eacret will be teammates in 20101 driving for Darren and Mary Bartels on the Unlimited Lights Hydroplane Racing Association -- McKay in the brand-new UL-10 and Eacret in the UL-11.
