Aston Martin Asia Cup

The Aston Martin Asia Cup (AMAC) is the world's first ever Aston Martin one make series. All drivers will compete for the AMAC title in identical Aston Martin V8 Vantage N24 race cars.
The series started in 2008 and consisted of 10 races throughout the Asia Pacific region including China, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore. Each race features a grid of 15 Aston Martin Vantage N24s, a 4.3 litre race-developed evolution of the V8 Vantage.
The AMAC includes a variety of 30-minute sprint races and longer endurance races, some of which support Formula One events in the region, like the Singapore Grand Prix and the Chinese Grand Prix.
