Leicestershire-based Allied Racing have signed Leon Jeacock to partner Dan Stamper in their Pirelli National Superstock squad for 2014.

Jeacock moves up from the 600cc class in which he raced last year to the bigger litre class but remains Kawasaki powered for the new season. “Me and Dan both have the same attitude towards racing so I believe working together will greatly benefit us both," he said.

Nineteen-year-old Stamper will be back on his Kawasaki ZX-6R for his second season with Allied, with hopes to push forward and challenge for the title. He said: “I’m very excited for 2014. I was making good progress towards the end of last year and with a few changes made to the bike I think I can run the pace.”
