Welcome to Austism Motorsports (AIM)
AIM encourages Children & Adults to try karting, you don't have to spend thousands to start with, local tracks offer time out in corporate karts, race suits and helmets. You just turn up/book and pay. If you like it you could join their clubs if they offer them and then gain more experience.
You could buy a kart, new or second hand and become one of the many millions of owner drivers, but remember, its all about being safe, driving within your comfortability, budget, meeting new friends and most importantly having fun!

Inclusive Karting Experience
Not everyone will become the next Sir Lewis Hamilton or Max Verstappen, but you can enjoy yourself and feel like a racing driver as that's what you will be doing.
2
Racing Adventures
Some go on to other motorsports like Rally cross, Endurance and much more and some just prefer to go karting.

Fun Always
Don't forget the new type of karting from Rob Smedley.
About Us
Autism In Motorsports (AIM) was formed by four friends Paul Ward, Mark Firm, Craig Tatham and Mark Dalrymple have resigned and left AIM to pursue other sports/interests.On 18th Feb 2024, Graham Deacon and Simon Palmer have both enrolled and become Directors to Autism In Motorsports and we all look forward to moving AIM further on.
The reason behind this was to Encourage more people with autism in to motorsports and promote the starting point in karting. Karting is the grass root level for most motorsports and people progress from here into many other motorsports.
AIM was a passion of Paul Ward, his son Anthony Ward has Autism and ADHD and found that karting helped Anthony in many ways. These include Awareness of dangers, Interaction, Learning, Outgoing to say a few.
Paul asked for the help and support from both Marks and Craig and with the help of others the Facebook Group was formed. Mark Firmin has continued to Support AIM at the very core and along with Paul, built AIM to what it is now.
