# 2013 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series

The 2013 NASCAR Canadian Tire Series season was the seventh season of the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series that took place in the summer of 2013. The season was composed of 12 races at 10 different venues. Seven of those events were contested on oval courses.

## Summary

The seventh season consisted of 12 events spanning across five provinces featuring 12 events. Television rights were once again licensed to TSN in one-hour tape-delayed episodes, excluding both events at the Canadian Tire Motorsport Park road course which was aired live on TSN and CTV.
The season started on May 19 at the newly renovated Canadian Tire Motorsport Park with Louis-Philippe Dumoulin collecting his first series win with longtime veteran Jeff Lapcevich finishing second. After a two-year hiatus the series returned to the Autodrome St. Eustache on 27 July as the events in Montreal and Edmonton Airport did not return the calendar.
