2026 Australian National Trans Am Series

The 2026 Australian National Trans Am Series is a scheduled national motor racing series conducted using TA2-class cars. The series is to be organised by the Australian Racing Group and is one of two national racing series conducted using this car class; the other being the TA2 Racing Muscle Car Series. It will be sanctioned by Motorsport Australia.

The series will commence at the Mount Panorama Circuit on April 3 as part of the Bathurst 6 Hour support bill, and will conclude at Sandown Raceway on November 8. The defending champion heading into the season is Todd Hazelwood.

Calendar

The following circuits are due to host a round of the 2026 championship. A planned event at the Phillip Island Grand Prix Circuit was annulled due to a scheduling conflict with the Supercars Championship. As a result, it would be substituted with a second event at Sandown Raceway.[1]
