The 21-year-old has been named as co-driver for Red Bull star and defending Supercars champion Shane van Gisbergen for this year’s Enduro Cup.
The highlight of the Enduro Cup is the Bathurst 1000, a race his new team has won on six occasions.
“I am so excited and grateful for this opportunity with the championship-winning team,” said Campbell.
“There is no doubt that it is going to be a big year, but after my debut in Supercars last year I do feel that I was able to gain the experience for what is required of me in this position. To be able to drive with the 2016 champ is pretty awesome."
Though Campbell’s Bathurst 1000 debut alongside Todd Kelly ended in a DNF after an incident four laps from the finish, he made a clean sweep of the Carrera Cup races.
