Austin Riley, like many normal 13 year old boys, has a love of cars and racing. At his young age, he is a competitive and accomplished go-kart racer who is highly decorated in his sport. The only difference between Austin and those he races against is he has autism, suffers from anxiety and has fine motor skill issues. Austin and his family started Racing With Autism as a way to financially support Austin’s racing, which is very therapeutic for him, and to raise funds for Autism Awareness.
