2013 F2000 Championship Series

The 2013 F2000 Championship Series season was the eighth season of competition in the series. It consisted of 14 rounds (seven double-race weekends), beginning April 11 at Virginia International Raceway and concluding August 25 at Summit Point Raceway. The race schedule was largely un-changed from the previous year, as only the round at New Jersey Motorsports Park was eliminated and a second weekend at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course was added.

Tim Minor clinched the championship after the fourth race at Mid-Ohio, becoming the first Masters Class driver to win the overall championship as well as being becoming the first series champion not to drive a Van Diemen chassis. Minor drove a Citation chassis to victory nine times on his way to the championship and finished either first or second in all but one race. 22-year-old Floridian Kyle Connery won four times and finished second in the championship.
