The series was won by kart racer James Sera, contesting his first national circuit racing series in the Saab 9-3 of 2003 Kerrick Sports Sedan Series winner Dean Randle. Despite missing the opening round of the series Sera claimed the title by 17 points over 2008 champion Darren Hossack (Audi A4). Sera took six wins and six seconds from his twelve starts in a near perfect season. Hossack took six wins but took no points away from the Morgan Park round after an engine failure. Hossack finished almost 80 points clear of third in the points, multiple series champion Kerry Baily.
