About Dunlop Super2 Series
The Dunlop Super2 Series serves as the premier breeding ground for the next generation of Australian touring car talent. Established in 2000 as a way to give emerging drivers and smaller teams a chance to compete on the national stage, it has evolved into a highly professional development category. Operating as a direct feeder to the Repco Supercars Championship, the series provides a platform where future stars hone their skills behind the wheel of high-powered V8 machinery. Racing typically takes place at iconic circuits across Australia, often as a key support category for the main Supercars events. The grid consists of previous-generation Supercars, such as the Holden ZB Commodore and the Ford Mustang GT, ensuring that the racing remains closely contested while keeping costs more manageable than the top-tier Gen3 competition. This technical continuity allows young drivers to learn the nuances of rear-wheel-drive, high-torque racing cars that mirror the characteristics of the main championship vehicles. Winning the Super2 title is a prestigious achievement that frequently fast-tracks a driver's career into a full-time professional seat. Legendary names like Mark Winterbottom, Scott McLaughlin, and Chaz Mostert all progressed through this pathway. Beyond the championship battle, the series also features the Super3 class, which integrates older models into the field, creating a multi-class environment that further enriches the competitive landscape of Australian motorsport.
