Scott said: “I have raced in the Bennetts British Superbike Championship support classes for the last six years now with 117 races and 71 podiums under my belt, so I feel the next step is due. 2022 was a fantastic year for me on the RS Racing Kalex in the GP2 class and competing with the Supersport riders.
“Winning the race overall at Thruxton against the likes of Jack Kennedy, Brad Perie, Luke Stapleford and Harry Truelove was amazing, but winning the GP2 Championship title was unbelievable. Now having the opportunity to step up to the Superbike class is a dream come true.
“I would like to say a big thank you to Dean at CDH Racing for offering me the ride and I am mega excited to finally be racing a Superbike. Testing can’t come soon enough now so roll on 2023.”
Team Owner Dean Hipwell commented: “We are pleased to announce the signing of Jack for next year. Jack impressed us during the 2022 season with some good rides against the main Supersport field. It’s good to have both riders announced now and we are looking forward to getting back out to Spain for some testing and assessing our winter developments.”
