2026 TA2 Muscle Car Series and Trans Am Series Calendars
The 2026 TA2 Muscle Car and Trans Am Series calendars will see competitors fight for the titles across the country with an increase in Supercars appearances plus an exciting new event planned for the TA2 series.
TA2 will undertake a 6 round Championship as the Premier Category on the Hi-Tec Oils Super Series Season 4 beginning in March at Shell-V Power Motorsport Park, before heading to Queensland Raceway in April for the Tag Team Enduro event which last year attracted big industry names such as Kostecki, Lowndes, Slade and Morris. For round 3, the series heads to SMP and the traditional night racing round, followed by Queensland Raceway for the second time and one week before the Supercars event in August. The series will then head south for two Victorian rounds, one at Winton Motor Raceway in September followed by a very special event being curated by Marcos Ambrose at Calder Park on the “Traditional” layout.
TA2 Competitors will also be invited to the Bathurst 6 Hour to compete within the Trans Am races but as a “Non Championship” affair.
The Trans Am Series will kick off at the Hi-Tec Oils Bathurst 6 Hour, then on to a 5 Supercars event swing with Darwin, Perth, Queensland Raceway, Shell-V Power Motorsport Park and Sandown with Phillip Island GP Circuit the scene for the final round with a date to be confirmed.
Five Supercars events is an increase over the 2024 calendar and will see the popular series compete in the west for the first time for a full championship round.
QUOTES
Matt MacKelden – TA2 and Trans Am National Category Manager
“To have both series calendars locked and loaded before Christmas is a big achievement and I can’t thank both the Super Series and Supercars enough for all their work in what was a busy end to the year.”
“Adding Shell-V Power Motorsport Park to the TA2 calendar is exciting, as is having Bathurst available to the teams and drivers again, and we know how big the Tag Team Enduro was this year, and we’re expecting the 2026 event to be even bigger again.”
“Increasing from three to five Supercars events in 2026 is exciting for the Trans Am Championship and I can’t thank Tim Edwards and James Delzoppo enough in allowing our series to perform on the big stage all across the country.”
“We’re expecting a few more high profile drivers in the Championship in 2026 which I’m sure the Supercars fans will love to cheer on and support as the year goes on.”
“The teams now know where they’re going and can begin to plan in earnest well ahead of the season which is pleasing for all, and I think both categories are set for their best seasons yet.”
