Biography

Fresh off a breakthrough podium performance with a third-place class finish at the 2025 SCORE Baja 500, Michael Marsal has firmly established himself as a rising force in SCORE International desert racing. The 37-year-old from Millbrook, New York, delivered his career-best result in the historic desert classic, showcasing the elite-level performance that has defined his campaign through the grueling Baja Peninsula.

Marsal's ascent through the SCORE ranks has been methodical and impressive, demonstrated by his consistent top-five finishes throughout the 2024 season. Racing his No. 236 SPY Brenthel-Chevy Truck, he secured fifth place at the SCORE San Felipe 250 and fourth at the SCORE Baja 400, performances that positioned him third overall in SCORE's prestigious top 25 standings with 247 points. His pursuit of the coveted Rod Hall SCORE Milestone Awards underscores his commitment to conquering every required mile across the championship series.

Operating from his Northeast base, Marsal brings a unique perspective to the predominantly West Coast-centered sport, proving that dedication and skill transcend geography in the unforgiving world of SCORE desert racing. His recent podium breakthrough signals the arrival of a serious championship contender.
