Welcome to the Autism in Motorsports Association page AIM (ASC)

From the age of 7 to 70, if you feel the need for speed, you have come to the right place. Whether it be karting, motocross, saloon cars, single-seaters, or racing lawnmowers, We will always seek to help to either assist neurodivergent members or direct them to one of our participating partners.
Many disciplines of motorsport offer a try it and see service, and we are developing our network in this area. Our most popular entry-level experiences come from karting. This is by far the most cost-effective and exhilarating way to experience something special.

Motorsport 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.

Racing Adventures

Some go on to other motorsports like Rally cross, Endurance and much more and some just prefer to go karting.

Fun Always

Pull the visor down, point the nose, build the revs, watch the lights, it’s your turn to show us what you can do. Remember what you have been taught in the drivers brief and off we go! there is nothing to touch it, and yes you may well be back for more. But that’s another story.😉

About Us

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.

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.

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.
