On April 7, 2026, Stanislav Shavaryn-Sharkey, the young SAL racer, was diagnosed by the USF Pediatrics Early Steps Department with very mild autism (Level 1).

They concluded that Stanislav has above-average intelligence, but he has selective speaking and his social interaction skills need to be addressed.

His speech therapist has stated that Stanislav will be the Elon Musk of racing.

This season in four races in JuiceBox at Ambassador Racing School, Stanislav has two second-place finishes and two third-place finishes.

Stanislav's diagnoses will not prevent him from racing up the ladder to F1.

Without a doubt, Stanislav is more comfortable at racing tracks than anyplace else.

Besides promoting cancer awareness, Stanislav and his father Jonathon, will be promoting autism awareness and treatment through their racing programs.

At his recent checkup, Stanislav at 33 months old is 40.5 inches tall and 41 lbs. Both are in the 99th percentile for his age.

Stanislav is a member of Pearce-Keller Sons of The American Legion Squadron 17 in Manhattan, Kan.
