Young gun Cameron McLeod will resume his Supercars career in new colours alongside the championship’s latest winner Cameron Hill.
After making his debut at PremiAir last year, McLeod will return to the main game enduros, this time driving the #4 Matt Stone Racing Camaro with Hill.
The third-generation driver is on a high following his maiden Super2 victory at the Sydney Motorsport Park opener.
McLeod has already got accustomed to the MSR team by getting some laps during the pre-season test at SMP and was also floating around during the recent Australian Grand Prix.
The 2023 Mike Kable Young Gun Award winner made his enduros debut alongside MSR’s other co-driver, Tim Slade where they finished as high as 12th at Sandown.
It ensures that for the second year in a row the #4 will only be driven by Cameron’s after Cameron Crick joined Hill last year.
McLeod is looking forward to racing a winning car at The Bend and Bathurst enduros after Hill’s Albert Park win.
“It’s great to be teaming up with Cameron Hill and Matt Stone Racing for the 2025 enduros,” said McLeod.
“Being my second year in a co-drive seat definitely makes it feel all worthwhile being able to keep the Supercars momentum going.
“The MSR team has been very welcoming — they feel like a bunch of mates and I’ve only known them for a couple of months now.
“I think it’s really cool how they go about their racing as an organisation, and obviously it’s already paying off with race wins and podiums this season.
“Really looking forward to the enduro season and seeing what we can do in the Supaglass Racing car.”
Team Owner, Matt Stone is looking forward to seeing the youngster go racing, while the wildcard with Cameron Crick will be announced at a later date.
“I think Cam McLeod did a great job last year in the enduros and he impressed a few guys in our team,” he said.
“We’re keen to give another young guy an opportunity and hopefully he and Cam Hill can bring home silverware at The Bend and Bathurst.”

The ATCC evolved over the years, and in 1997, it was rebranded as the V8 Supercars Championship, eventually becoming the Supercars Championship we know today.
Some of the leading drivers in the history of the Supercars Championship include Peter Brock, who is often referred to as the "King of the Mountain" for his nine victories at the Bathurst 1000, a race that is considered one of the biggest in the series. Other notable drivers include Dick Johnson, Marcos Ambrose, Craig Lowndes, Shane van Gisbergen, Jamie Whincup, who holds the record for the most championship titles, and Mark Skaife, who has also been a dominant force in the series.
The Bathurst 1000, held at Mount Panorama Circuit in Bathurst, New South Wales, is arguably the most famous race in the Supercars calendar. Other significant races include the Sandown 500 and the Adelaide 500, which are known for their challenging circuits and thrilling competitions.
