As the NASCAR Holdings acquisition of Panoz Motor Sports, and IMSA, had already taken place, this season is technically one of two series that formed the 43rd season of the IMSA GT Championship that dates to 1971.
Lotus announced that they are developing a new Evora for the 2013 Rolex season.[2]
The series introduced a new alternative fueled "GX" class for the 2013 season.[3] The vehicles also utilized new technologies not otherwise used in the series. Mazda announced that it would offer its SkyActiv-D diesel engine to teams for this new class. 2013 also marked the first season since 2004 to feature three classes.
In September 2012, Grand Am tested Kansas Speedway in hopes of adding it to the 2013 schedule. The tests proved successful.[4]
Championship points are awarded based on finishing positions as shown below. The exception is at the 24 Hours of Daytona, where a minimum of 15th place points are awarded so as not to excessively penalize a low finish when there are generally more entrants.[5]
