From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



The 2013 NASCAR K&N Pro Series East was the 27th season of the K&N Pro Series East. It began with the DRIVE4COPD 125 at Bristol Motor Speedway on March 17, and ended with the Road Atlanta 115 at Road Atlanta on October 18.[1][2] Kyle Larson entered the season as the defending Drivers' Champion,[3] but did not return the series as he moved to the NASCAR Nationwide Series full-time for Turner Scott Motorsports.[4]
Dylan Kwasniewski won the championship after collecting five race wins during the season, along with eight top-fives and ten top-tens finishes.[5] Kwasniewski finished 33 points ahead of his closest rival in the points standings, Brett Moffitt. Moffitt finished with five top-fives and ten top-ten finishes, but failed to win a race. Third place in the championship went to Daniel Suárez, who took one victory on the season.[6] Cole Custer and Ben Kennedy collected two victories,[7][8] while Brandon Gdovic,[9] Ryan Gifford,[10] Michael Self,[11] and Austin Hill each collected a victory.[12]
The UNOH Battle at the Beach was an exhibition race and did not count towards the championship.
