2023 NASCAR Pinty's Series

The 2023 NASCAR Pinty's Series is the seventeenth season of the Pinty's Series, the national stock car racing series in Canada sanctioned by NASCAR. The season began with a race at Sunset Speedway on May 13 and concluded with the race at Delaware Speedway on September 24.

Treyten Lapcevich won his first Pinty's Series championship after winning seven races during the season. Marc-Antoine Camirand, who entered the season as the defending champion, finished second in the final standings behind Lapcevich. Alex Tagliani finished third in the championship.
