2013 Stadium Super Trucks Series

The series marked the revival of off-road racing in stadiums, originally created by Mickey Thompson, and reintroduced by former NASCAR driver Robby Gordon.

[4] Robby Gordon organized an exhibition race at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway in September 2012 for the series to test their equipment.

[19] The opening race of the season, at University of Phoenix Stadium, initially was led by Justin Matney until Lalo Laguna passed him on lap 2.

[22] SST remained in southern California at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, racing on the first asphalt track laid in the stadium,[23] and at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego, where future series and NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series champion Sheldon Creed made his debut.

In the next round, pole-sitter Mike Jenkins entered turn 2 too quickly and rolled over, giving Apdaly Lopez the lead, though Lofton passed him.

With the invert, Lopez led, and at the lap six restart, Gordon suffered damage to his truck and rolled over.
