Austin Riley's Story is Reaching the World... Now Let's Help Him Finish It

Today, Austin's story was featured by Global News, shining a national spotlight on an incredible season that has seen him win 12 races in 12 starts while leading the Revolution Cup Championship. The story highlights not only his success behind the wheel, but how his autism has helped shape the driver—and the person—he has become.

For our family, it's humbling to see Austin's journey shared with such a wide audience. But this story has never been just about winning races.

Racing With Autism was founded to challenge perceptions, inspire families affected by autism, and prove that a diagnosis should never define what someone is capable of achieving. Every lap Austin completes, every podium he stands on, and every school presentation he gives helps change the way people see autism.

Unfortunately, despite one of the most dominant seasons of his career, our biggest challenge isn't on the race track—it's funding.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, we've already secured the funding needed for the next race at VIR. However, we are still working to raise the money needed to get Austin to the season finale at Circuit of The Americas, where he'll have the opportunity to complete this remarkable championship campaign.

If Austin's story has inspired you, or if you believe in what Racing With Autism is accomplishing, we would be incredibly grateful for your support. Whether it's becoming a sponsor, making a donation, purchasing merchandise, or simply sharing Austin's story, every contribution helps keep this mission moving forward.

Together, we can do more than win races.

Together, we can continue changing perceptions of autism—one lap at a time.
