🇺🇸 Marc Austin

Marc Austin is a semi-professional racing driver competing in national multiclass GT and endurance championships in the United States. He holds an FIA Bronze rating, grading him as an amateur competitor, and races for Lone Star Racing. His machinery has ranged from GT3 to GT4 cars across solo sprint and shared-car endurance formats; his current focus is IMSA VP Racing SportsCar Challenge, where he runs GT4 and GT3 machinery in the GSX and GTDX classes.[1]

Austin's record spans six seasons from 2021 to 2026, with 25 starts across six series. His sole win came in Trans-Am during the 2022 to 2023 campaign, when he took three podiums and finished seventh in the championship standings. His other podium finishes have come in IMSA VP Racing SportsCar Challenge, where he has taken two top-three results in four starts, and in GT World Challenge America, where he secured one podium in a single endurance entry. He has also run GT America and GT4 America, though without podium finishes in either series.[2]

Austin typically finishes behind his most regular opponents, Kyle Washington and George Kurtz, both established competitors with significantly larger portfolios in national GT racing. Against elite professional-level drivers his record has been rare; he has finished ahead of Christopher Bell, the 2017 NASCAR Truck Series champion, once, and ahead of Ty Gibbs, a former NASCAR Xfinity and ARCA champion, once. He sits mid-field in a mixed field of amateur and professional entries, with his podium record concentrated in IMSA competition in 2026.
