The series was dominated by a single driver, with Howard Racing Ford Falcon driver Adam Macrow winning eight of the 18 races and five of the seven rounds. Dick Johnson RacingFord Falcon driver Andrew Thompson won the remaining two rounds, including three race wins. An inconsistent start to the series saw him only eighth in the pointscore which placed a heavy emphasis on finishing over winning. Young Perkins MotorsportHolden Commodore drivers Shane Price and Jack Perkins finished second and third in the series, with Price taking two race wins. The only other multiple race winner was Kayne Scott who won two reverse grid races.

The following teams and drivers have competed during the 2006 Fujitsu V8 Supercar Series:
The series consisted of seven rounds across four different states. Rounds 2, 3, 4 and 5 consisted of three races each. The second race of each weekend saw the finishing order of race 1 reversed to form the grid for a 'reverse grid' race. Point allocated for the reverse grid race were worth half as much as were the first and third races of these rounds. Rounds 1, 6 and 7 each consisted of two races.
Points were awarded for cars who finished in the top 32 race positions in each race according to finishing order. With cars finishing races as low as 37th, there were numerous occasions during the season were cars did not receive points for finishing races.
