  • The original calendar removed the Ipswich, Newcastle and Perth rounds with Sydney Motorsport Park and Symmons Plains reinstated, having last being in the series in 2017 and 2018 respectively. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a revised calendar resulted in the Symmons Plains and The Bend Motorsport Park rounds being cancelled.
  • The Bathurst 250 km race was split into two races of 125 km. The change was made as the mandatory refuelling in pit stops proved to be problematic in 2019.

The series was to have seen an increase in the prize money awarded, with the champion to be given $400,000 as a way to secure funding into the Supercars Championship. A "Rookie" class aimed at drivers under the age of 25 was planned, with the winner to be awarded $100,000 to secure a second year in the series. This was done to help young drivers into the Supercars Championship as part of the Junior Development Program. As a result the COVID-19 pandemic, both were shelved.
