David Bogie begins the year as defending champion after winning five out of the eight events in 2012.

For season 2013, the championship will be sponsored by ARR Craib Transport Ltd, an Aberdeen based road haulage and logistics company. This is a one-year deal announced in December 2012.

The 2013 season begins in the snow-covered forest tracks around Inverness on 16 February, with the season finale taking place around Perth on 5 October.

Following the Colin McRae Forest Stages Rally in October, David Bogie and his regular co-driver Kevin Rae were declared 2013 Scottish rally champions. This represents a record breaking fifth title in a row for the pair. The award ceremony will take place on 30 November 2013 at the Marriott Hotel in Glasgow.

The opening event of the season, the Thistle Snowman Rally was abandoned due to an accident involving a competing car, which left the road and killed a 50-year-old spectator.

On 12 March 2013, series organisers announced that the Galloway Hills Rally – a reserve event when the championship calendar was first announced – would be included as the championship finale.
