Several employees of local energy and electrical companies spent an evening speeding around an indoor go-kart track at Unser Racing in early October for the energy industry’s final happy hour of the year. Hosted by Independent Electrical Contractors Rocky Mountain (IECRM) and sponsored by electrical distributor QED, the ticketed networking event drew participants from: All Copy Products; Bauerle & Company, P.C.; Encore Electric, Inc.; Legrand Cablofil; Network Insurance Services; and QED. Unser Racing is one of the newest members to the IECRM trade association.

The top three victors of a cutthroat series of high-speed races were: Pete Farreny of Weifield Group Contracting, Michael Gortari of QED, and Stefan Boehm of Easter-Owens (see Photos).
