The 2013 F1600 Championship Series season was the third season of the F1600 Championship Series.
Eighteen-year-old Jake Eidson from Littleton, Colorado won the championship driving for Cape Motorsports w/ Wayne Taylor Racing. Eidson won seven of the twelve races and captured a race win in all but one of the series' weekend double-headers. Bryan Herta Autosport's Adrian Starrantino captured three wins on his way to runner-up honors in the championship.[1]
Notably, IndyCar Series rookie Tristan Vautier joined the series for its race weekend at the Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course to gain experience at the track that he had not raced at before and where he would race in IndyCar a few weeks later.[2] Vautier won the pole for race two, but finished just sixth and 13th in the pair of races.
