In 2013, the Pirelli World Challenge Championship kicked off its twenty-fourth consecutive season at St. Petersburg,
Florida, in March as a support event for the IndyCar series. The season ended the first weekend in October at the Grand Prix of Houston.
In between these two events, there were races at Long Beach, Circuit of the Americas, Detroit, Lime Rock, Toronto, Mid-Ohio and Sonoma Raceway.
The series launched the Touring Car B-Spec category in 2012 and it was proving popular as entries were showing strong growth. There were four classes this season:
The final two races of the 2013 Pirelli World Challenge season for the Touring Car category were conducted in Houston, Texas at the Reliant/NRG Park complex. Drivers would compete in two twenty-five-minute races around the ten-turn 1.683-mile temporary street circuit. Issues with the layout resulting in time constraints forced World Challenge series officials to cancel the qualifying session for round thirteen and set the grid based on driver points. |
