Austin Schimmel competed in kart racing at the SuperNationals level between 2008 and 2016. His record across eight starts in that eight-year span showed one victory and three podium finishes, placing him on average in seventh position when classified. Schimmel finished ahead of his most frequent rivals; he beat Alex Tartaglia, a driver of similar rating, in all four of their shared races, and held winning records against Miguel Lopez across three meetings and Christian Schureman across three meetings as well.[1]
The driver's most notable results came against substantially stronger professionals. Schimmel finished ahead of Riley Dickinson, an FIA Silver-graded driver and two-time Porsche Carrera Cup NA Pro champion, once, and twice defeated Salvador de Alba, also FIA Silver-graded. He also beat Andrew Evans and Milan Dontje, both FIA Silver professionals, in single races each. These results were scattered across his nine-year racing period and do not establish a pattern of sustained competition at that level.
Schimmel's rating of 2,488 places him in the competitive amateur band; he raced in club and regional fields where he competed regularly against other amateurs rather than as a professional. His career ended after 2016.
