Emmett loves racing with his team, Orioli Kart Performance, and competing against other racers. He loves learning new racecraft and applying the skills with a goal of continuous improvement. When there are new drivers that come to his home track (T4 KartPlex) he loves welcoming and teaching them while making a new friend!
Emmett says his coaches, Bruno and Luke, inspire him because they tell him if he keeps working hard they know he will make it far in racing one day.
Emmett is most proud of himself for transitioning from 4-stroke to 2-stroke racing and competing against other talented national racers. As Emmett's family, we are so proud of his hard work and dedication to racing. He is extremely self-driven and passionate about racing with big dreams of driving professionally one day. His love for the sport is inspiring and he is such a hype man for his fellow racers and teammates. Watching him share his love and knowledge with others is so heartwarming.
