The **2023 Dunlop Super2 & Super3 Series** was an Australian motor racing competition for [Supercars](/source/Supercars_Championship) as a support series. It was the twenty-fourth running of the [Supercars Development Series](/source/Super2_Series), the second tier of competition in Supercars racing. Since joining as a class in 2021 this marks at the same time as the sixteenth running of the [Super3 Series](/source/Super3_Series), the third tier of competition in Supercars racing (Officially in 2019 as the Kumho Tyre Super3 Series).

It was the first year that the Super2 class will run the Gen2 cars ([Holden Commodore ZB](/source/Holden_Commodore_ZB) and [Ford Mustang GT](/source/Ford_Mustang_GT)), while the Super3 class ran the older Project Blueprint and Car of the Future vehicles.[1]
