The 2013 Sam's Town 300 was the third stock car race of the 2013 NASCAR Nationwide Series and the 17th iteration of the event. The race was held on Saturday, March 9, 2013, in North Las Vegas, Nevada at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, a 1.5 miles (2.4 km) permanent D-shaped oval racetrack. The race took the scheduled 200 laps to complete. Sam Hornish Jr., driving for Penske Racing, would survive two ensuing restarts and defend eventual-second Joe Gibbs Racing place driver Kyle Busch to win his second career NASCAR Nationwide Series win and his first and only win of the season. To fill out the podium, Brian Vickers of Joe Gibbs Racing would finish third.
