# 2013 CNBC Prime's The Profit 200

The 2013 CNBC Prime's The Profit 200 was the 17th stock car race of the 2013 NASCAR Nationwide Series and the 24th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, July 13, 2013, in Loudon, New Hampshire, at New Hampshire Motor Speedway a 1.058 miles (1.703 km) permanent, oval-shaped, low-banked racetrack. The race was extended from its scheduled 200 laps to 2013 due to multiple green–white–checker finishes. At race's end, Kyle Busch, driving for Joe Gibbs Racing, would defend the field on a drama-filled final restart to complete a dominant run in the race. The win was Busch's 58th career NASCAR Nationwide Series win and his seventh win of the season. To fill out the podium, Brian Vickers of Joe Gibbs Racing and Austin Dillon of Richard Childress Racing would finish second and third, respectively.

## Background

New Hampshire Motor Speedway is a 1.058-mile (1.703 km) oval speedway located in Loudon, New Hampshire, which has hosted NASCAR racing annually since the early 1990s, as well as the longest-running motorcycle race in North America, the Loudon Classic. Nicknamed "The Magic Mile", the speedway is often converted into a 1.6-mile (2.6 km) road course, which includes much of the oval.
The track was originally the site of Bryar Motorsports Park before being purchased and redeveloped by Bob Bahre. The track is currently one of eight major NASCAR tracks owned and operated by Speedway Motorsports.
