The ARCA RE/MAX Series is an American stock car series, the premier division of the Automobile Racing Club of America. It is considered a minor, but professional, league of stock car racing, perhaps two steps down from the top-level NASCAR Sprint Cup Series and one step down from that series' minor league, the NASCAR Nationwide Series.

The series races on tracks as varied as small ovals and as large as Daytona International Speedway during the Daytona Speedweeks. It is one of the last major oval track circuits to still compete on dirt tracks. The series will return to racing on a road course in 2008.[1]

Justin Allgaier is the most recent champion.

It is unaffiliated with NASCAR, instead run by the Automobile Racing Club of America. The series has raced since 1953.[2]

History

The series started as a local touring group. Led by John Marcum, the Midwest Association for Race Cars was formed with drivers like Iggy Katona and Nelson Stacy being early drivers.[2]

The series became a part of the Daytona Speedweeks in 1964.[3]
