Pipe Dreams Podcast is back for Episode 28 with Mathew Scholtz to explore his journey from the circuits of South Africa to the top tier of American road racing. Mathew shares how he got his start in mini-moto racing, earned a spot in the Red Bull MotoGP Rookies Cup, and made his mark on the international stage with standout performances that turned heads early in his career.

We dive into his time with Westby Racing, where he became a consistent contender in the MotoAmerica Superbike Championship, and his recent success capturing the 2023 MotoAmerica Supersport Championship title. Now racing for Strack Racing, Mathew talks about what’s next, the mindset shift that comes with changing teams, and his goals for the upcoming season.

Mathew also opens up about his childhood, the privilege of growing up with supportive parents who gave him every opportunity to chase his dream, and how he’s learned to view pressure as a privilege. He speaks candidly about living with a stutter and how gratitude has remained central to his perspective, both on and off the bike. This episode is a deep, honest look into the life and mindset of one of the sport’s most determined and grounded athletes.
