Help with finding accessible hobbies for teen

Hi ,I'm just wondering if anyone has any good links or advice on where or how to start helping our cp/asc teen get involved in a hobbie , they have been in autistic burnout for almost a year and not at school due to this so lost any peer support or any feelings of worth , they currently have showed an interest in formula 1 racing and go carts but I wouldn't know where to start in trying to find somewhere local to me with carting places where they are both disability friendly in terms of potential adaptions on steering wheels ect or even autism friendly also ? Does anyone have any good tips and also if any new interests pop up in their head where do I start looking when I'm not even sure what I'm looking for specifically ? If anyone could help with any info I would really be grateful

@clipI recommend LEGO - There are so many things that you can build nowadays - from cars (even F1 cars), ships, space craft ..etc etc from age 5 to age 90+
I am in my 60's and got in to Lego about 5 years ago - it is amazing
I also think that it helps improve coordination.
Give it a go and if it's not suitable - you've only lost a few £

What about horses, do they like them?
Disabled young people along the road from me get such alot out of caring for and riding horses.
