GT Driver

Marton's sim racing career got off to an early start, when he first came in touch with racing games at only age of four. His father bought an XBox classic and with that Colin McRae Rally. Before anyone knew what was happening, Marton was the fastest family member, beating everyone else. Marton's father said at that point: "This boy will be a fantastic driver."

After growing up, Marton transitioned to Asetto Corsa with a Logitech Momo steering wheel. At that time, he started turning many laps at the Nürburgring Nordschleife in a Mercedes AMG GT3, which is the reason why to this date the "Green Hell" is his favorite race track.

In his spare time, he started racing gokarts - something he enjoys to do to this day, when he isn't busy racing.

A few years ago, when life got busy, Marton put his sim racing career on halt for a few years, but in 2020 he returned, this time on iRacing, albeit his equipment was still the old, legendary Logitech Momo steering wheel and subpar performing hardware.

After investing a lot of money and upgrading his hardware and racing equipment since 2020, he has accomplished earning an A road license on iRacing and joined Fischer Motorsport in 2021 after competing in the iRacing 24 Hours of Le Mans and iRacing 24 Hours of Spa with the organization and after making a decision to focus on GT team endurance racing in his future career.

In just one year of competition on various iRacing road series, he has already garnered 13 wins, 50 top-fives and 17 pole positions.
