The series started in 2008 and consisted of 10 races throughout the Asia Pacific region including China, Japan, Malaysia and Singapore. Each race featured a grid of 15 Aston Martin Vantage N24s, a 4.3 L (0.95 imp gal; 1.1 US gal) race-developed evolution of the V8 Vantage.

The AMAC included a variety of 30-minute sprint races and longer endurance races, some of which supported Formula One events in the region, like the Singapore Grand Prix and the Chinese Grand Prix.
