Spectrum Racing for Autistic racing drivers

16 August 2021 1:36 PM | Lauren Martin-Grieveson (Administrator)

Spectrum Racing for Autistic racing drivers

Six racing drivers under the age of 21, including Corey Chapma a karter aged ten, and multiple kart race winner Jack Ferguson.

Three of the six are on the Autistic Spectrum. (Autism, or autism spectrum condition, refers to a broad range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviours, speech and nonverbal communication.)

All highly talented, dedicated, and determined. All proven race winners. We need your help to get them on track.

We have supplied the cars, commercial partners have helped  and these drivers have the chance they want. We need them to top up the funding.

We will not detail the drivers yet and they will introduce themselves when they feel comfortable to do so. You will have plenty of chances to meet them all eventually.

We have two endurance specification Citroen C1s, ready to race. We also have two BMW 116i Trophy cars in build, scheduled for completion at the end of August, subject to funding.

In addition to developing the drivers, we are raising funds and encouraging donations to the Norwich Foodbank, while raising awareness of homelessness through Shelter. 

Our target is to raise £5000, to be split between the race costs, entry fees, etc and the charities.

Big or small, all donations will be very gratefully received. Each supporter will receive regular newsletters, and those over £15 will receive a signed photo.

Over £50, and we'll give you two race tickets, and if you’re able to contribute £500, you can drive the cars at the end of the season.  If you're able to contribute £1000, you can be in the driving seat yourself at the end of the season!

Three drivers per car for the following events:

  • Pembrey 11 & 12 Sept 2 x 3-hour races
  • Oulton Park 23 October 1 × 3-hour race
  • Brands Hatch 13 November 1 x 3-hour race
