IndyCar Series 2008

IndyCar Series 2008 kördes över 18 omgångar mellan 29 mars och 7 september. Mästare blev Scott Dixon, som vann Indianapolis 500 och ytterligare fem deltävlingar. Hans största konkurrent Hélio Castroneves vann två deltävlingar och tog åtta andraplatser och var med i titelfajten ända till slutet. Castroneves vann det sista racet med 0,003646 sekunder, men Dixon hade ett så stort försprång att han ändå vann mästerskapstiteln.
