Tornado Alley Trophy

The Tornado Alley Trophy was introduced by ARLA in 2013 as an exclusively short track-oriented championship. Similar to the TM Master Cup Series Independent's Trophy, the Tornado Alley Trophy consisted of its own class of cars competing alongside the Elite Series regulars in a certain number of races within the tornado alley region of the United States. It is believed that the idea behind the Tornado Alley Trophy was to give lesser known short track teams, such as those competing in the ARLA Street Stocks, something to compete for without having to travel as much as the series regulars. However, some of the more established teams also fielded their own entries in the Tornado Alley Trophy.

Cyrus LaTerza and Mitchell & Sons Racing won the inaugural, and so far only, Tornado Alley Trophy in 2013.
