Races2U was recently hired to set up a couple of slot car tracks at Flexera Software’s annual sales meeting in Schaumburg, Illinois, a large suburb of Chicago. At first we were a little nervous, as a Texas based company, most of our personnel don’t have much experience with the harsh winters of the Great Lakes. As it turns out, the weather was wonderful, and we were really warmed up by the great reception we received. We were working with the fantastic event planners from Plan On It, and they did an amazing job of putting on this multi-day event for this international Fortune 500 company. There was delicious food and drink, and of course our racing was a part of the entertainment. It was really a privilege to entertain so many great people from all over the world, and we had racers from England, Italy, France, India, and more. It was almost like attending a real Formula 1 race with the international crowd. A big “Thank you!!!” to our wonderful hostesses Lynda and Teresa and the rest of the Plan On It staff, and all the participants from Flexera who raced with us. Our tracks were sponsored by KPMG, and you will note their logo appears all over the track as a thank you for their sponsorship. Of course, we couldn’t have done it without the help of our two amazing “Pit Crew” track attendants, Cierra and Teresa, who kept the races running smoothly.
