Mathew Scholtz is a happy guy. And he should be. The South African is coming off an 11-win season in which he earned his second successive MotoAmerica Supersport title, and the end result of those two years of domination have led him back to the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship for the 2026 season. A five-time MotoAmerica Superbike race winner, Scholtz will be aboard a Yamaha YZF-R1 with the team that helped him win the past two Supersport titles – Strack Racing. Scholtz knows that the task is a big one, but he’s ready for the challenge as the team gets closer to starting its off-season testing program. We caught up with Scholtz from his home in Georgia to discuss the year that was and the year to come on this week’s episode of Off Track With Carruthers And Bice.
