The 2008 ARLA Elite Series season (then known as the ARLA Smash Beer Elite Stocks) was a series of 19 total races which was comprised of 17 points races and two exhibition races. A four-race European tour was held after the season was completed.
The season began and ended at Daytona, with Chris Johaanes winning his 2nd championship.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- This season was the second year of the GT-style bodies as opposed to the more traditional stock-car type bodies used by the TM Master Cup and other series. Officials announced that for certain races the TM Master Cup body style would be used. The Bait 'N' Stuff 100 was the first of these races.
- This season also was the last in which the pre-season Shootout event would be contested by the previous season's pole winners. Starting with the 2009 season, rookies would compete in the event, now known as the Rookie Shootout.
- The four-race European tour at the end of the season was the first time the 2009 ARLA cars took to the track.
