For the second time in as many years, Brianne
Corn, of San Marcos, Texas, made history at an SCCA
National Championship event. In 2011, Corn became
just the third female to win an open class
Championship at the Tire Rack SCCA Solo®
National Championships, and then on Sunday (2012)
became the first woman to ever win an SCCA
RallyCross National Championship. Corn’s
Modified All Wheel Drive class title came in the
Vorshlag/AWD Tuning/OS Giken Mitsubishi Evolution
by 16.856 seconds of aggregate time. Corn’s
car control from Solo shined, as the champion hit
only one cone in her seven timed runs.

2011 Queen of The Mountain Brianne Corn Will
Race Again At The Pikes Peak International Hill
Climb Next Summer
Brianne Corn became the first woman to triumph at
the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in 27 years
when she shocked the field in winning the Time
Attack 4WD division last summer.
The experience for the driver from San Marcos,
Texas, must have been rewarding enough, because she
has registered again for a return to America’s
Mountain on July 8 next summer in her 2005 Subaru
STI and a shot at a repeat crown.
Even with a blown clutch during the final
stages, Corn reached the summit in the winning time
of 11:56.422 to become only the second woman in the
history of the nation’s second-oldest
motorsport race behind the Indy 500 to win. The
other was Michelle Mouton in 1984.
Corn had competed at Pikes Peak twice before
(2009, 2010) in the motorcycle division. But longed
for the challenge in an automobile, so she
registered a year ago with a rebuilt auto and won.
Christy Carlson, who suffered engine failure
last summer in her first crack at the Hill. She
currently works full-time for the Air Force Weather
Agency and is still pursuing a Ph.D. in
Meteorology/Climatology through the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln.
