Martin Sarukhanyan is an entry-level professional racing in national multiclass championships across the United States. He competes primarily in IMSA Pilot Challenge, where he shares a GT4-class Aston Martin with Circle H Racing, and has also started in Trans-Am, International GT and SCCA Regionals competition in production-based and spec machinery.[1]
Sarukhanyan has six starts on record across three seasons from 2022 to 2026. He took two podiums early in his indexed career, one in International GT in 2023 and another in IMSA Pilot Challenge in 2026, the latter coming in an endurance format where multiple drivers share the car. His most recent activity came in Trans-Am, where he finished eleventh in the championship standings across one round in 2023.[2]
His podium finishes place him alongside established professionals; he has beaten Thiago Camilo, a Gold-graded driver with extensive IMSA Pilot Challenge experience, and Robby Foley, the 2025 GT World Challenge America Pro-Am champion. These remain single-race results against much more experienced competitors, and his limited start count means the breadth of his competition remains narrow.
