The series schedule has changed significantly with the SpeedSeries not running in 2025. The series ran as a support category at three Supercars Championship events, notably the Adelaide 500. [1]

Also notable was a joint race with the other national TA2-based series, the TA2 Racing Muscle Car Series, at the Bathurst Six Hour, which category organisers hope to have a combined grid "in the vicinity of 40 cars". [2]
