Bryce Cornet Wins at the US Open of Las Vegas

Friday, November 6th, 2015

Bryce Cornet, with support from family and friends, earned a victory at the US Open of Las Vegas after a long week of racing.

“The weekend went very smoothly. We made very few changes to the chassis setup, and spent most of the time working with engine performance and jetting. We made it smoothly through the heats picking up points that helped us secure a pole position in the final race. We led all 25 laps of the final race and came away with a win! I couldn’t be happier for my family, friends and my team, Champion Racing. My dad has been my tuner ever since I began karting and he has always been a key to my success. He is always working so hard to ensure that we have the best setup and I am so thankful for him and all that he does. I would also like to thank Champion Racing for supplying all the tools necessary to be as successful as possible. I have been with Champion Racing since I began racing at the age of 6, and they have always been one of the most successful teams out there.

Thank you to Maaco Collision Repair and Auto Painting in OKC, Sign It Up in Blanchard and to all those who have supported me during my GoFundMe fundraising campaign! Thank you for the support this season!” – Bryce Cornet
