Team changes

Ford Australia announced that from 2009, it would only offer financial support for Ford Performance Racing and Stone Brothers Racing, having previously provided funding for Triple Eight Race Engineering, Dick Johnson Racing, Britek Motorsport, Paul Cruickshank Racing and Ford Rising Stars Racing. The remaining Ford backed teams retained levels of parts and in-kind support.

Holden also announced that several teams' financial support would be cut, with Garry Rogers Motorsport, Perkins Engineering, Tasman Motorsport and Rod Nash Racing losing direct funding, although they still received technical and parts assistance. The new Kelly Racing team received the funding previously given to the HSV Dealer Team.

Paul Weel Racing shut down at the end of 2008 after failing to strike a deal to sell the team. Their remaining Racing Entitlement Contract (REC) was sold to Walkinshaw Racing

Walkinshaw Racing was set up as a satellite team of the Holden Racing Team, utilising one REC purchased from Paul Weel Racing and the dormant Romano Racing license. This was effectively Walkinshaw Performance's replacement of the HSV Dealer Team, which shut down as the Kelly family took their two RECs to set up Kelly Racing.

The second Paul Weel Racing REC, that had been leased to Ford Rising Stars Racing in 2007, was used to start a new team, Marcus Marshall Motorsport. It utilised a Triple Eight-sourced BF Falcon and equipment and was centered around former Britek Motorsport driver Marcus Marshall.

Kelly Racing was set up utilising the franchises from the defunct HSV Dealer Team and two RECs from Perkins Engineering. Todd and Rick Kelly along with Jack Perkins were also absorbed into the new team as a result.

Britek Motorsport shut down as an independent team at the end of 2007 due to the loss of Ford factory funding. Bright moved one of his RECs to Stone Brothers Racing to run as a customer car. He started the season in a BF Falcon, before switching mid-season to a new FG Falcon. The second REC was leased to Paul Cruickshank Racing as they expanded to two cars.

Driver changes

Will Davison replaced the retiring Mark Skaife at the Holden Racing Team.

James Courtney joined Steven Johnson at Dick Johnson Racing, replacing Will Davison. Will's brother Alex then replaced Courtney at Stone Brothers Racing.

Paul Dumbrell moved from the defunct HSV Dealer Team to Walkinshaw Racing. David Reynolds also made his full-time series debut as the team's second driver.

Dale Wood effectively replaced Dumbrell at Kelly Racing, as it had taken over the HSV Dealer Team.

Jason Bargwanna returned to a full-time drive, replacing Jason Richards at Tasman Motorsport. Bargwanna had spent a year on the sidelines after WPS Racing folded prior to the 2008 season. Richards was later confirmed as Andrew Jones' replacement at Brad Jones Racing as Jones stepped away from full-time driving.

Michael Patrizi joined an expanded Paul Cruickshank Racing as their second driver.

Tim Slade graduated from the Fujitsu Series to replace the retiring Paul Morris at Paul Morris Motorsport.

With the closure of Paul Weel Racing, Andrew Thompson was left without a full-time drive, and later partnered Tony D'Alberto for the endurance races.

After running a number of drivers in 2008, Team Kiwi Racing elected to run Dean Fiore.

Mid-season changes

Team Kiwi Racing finalised a deal for the 2009 season to run a Paul Morris Motorsport-built Holden Commodore. The franchise was run as a satellite entry of Paul Morris Motorsport for the first two events of the year. Due to bankruptcy proceedings against team owner David John, the team's license was revoked by the governing body V8 Supercars Australia after the Hamilton 400 and onsold to their driver Dean Fiore, who completed the season under the Triple F Racing banner. The car number was changed for Triple F's second outing from #021 to #12.

Dale Wood was replaced at Kelly Racing after the Darwin Triple Crown round by Mark McNally.

Marcus Marshall Motorsport collapsed at the Townsville round due to lack of funding and the REC was absorbed by V8 Supercars Australia. The team's equipment was sold to Triple F Racing.

For the endurance events, as both the Holden Racing Team and Walkinshaw Racing were run by Walkinshaw Performance, Paul Dumbrell joined HRT in the second car partnering Craig Baird, while Shane Price was drafted in to replace Dumbrell.

Wildcard entries

V8 Supercars Australia announced four wildcards entries into the two endurance race events (the Phillip Island 500 and Bathurst 1000). The four teams selected from those who made submissions were all competitors in the second-tier Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series, namely: Greg Murphy Racing, MW Motorsport, Sieders Racing Team and Sonic Motor Racing Services.

Greg Murphy Racing ran a VE Commodore built by their sister-team Tasman Motorsport with Fujitsu series regular Sam Walter named as one of the drivers. Taz Douglas was later named as the second driver.

The family-run Sieders Racing Team announced that they would use the 2006 Bathurst 1000-winning Triple Eight BF Falcon for brothers Colin and David Sieders. Colin later withdrew citing imminent surgery and was replaced with V8 Ute Series racer Andrew Fisher.

MW Motorsport were represented by their young up-and-coming drivers Damien Assaillit and Brad Lowe, to give them experience ahead of a possible promotion to a main game full-time or co-driver role in 2010.

Sonic Motor Racing Services ultimately withdrew their entry and V8 Supercars Australia decided not to allow them to be replaced with another team.

Race calendar

The following events made up the 2009 series.

The Desert 400 originally scheduled to take place on 5–7 November was moved into the 2010 season. A replacement event, The Island 300, was announced in late September at Phillip Island. The Nikon SuperGP altered its format at late notice after the cancellation of the A1 Grand Prix event which was due to be held at the same event. The two by 200 kilometre races were altered to two races each split into two 150 kilometre legs. Race winners were declared on the basis of accumulated points over the two legs held each day.

NOTES:

Std denotes all races except the L&H 500, Bathurst 1000, and Surfers Paradise. These three races have unique rules.

L&H 500: Phillip Island races are split into qualifying races and 500 km feature race. The two drivers per team will be grouped into separate qualifying races that will count towards drivers' individual point totals and towards the starting grid for the feature race. The two drivers will then race one car for the 500 km endurance race.

Bathurst: Both drivers will share one car for entire race.

Surfers Paradise: Four races.
