10-12: GMC Cup History

On the Race Report, we explore the history of the GMC Cup. It was 1969 and Olympic champion Nancy Greene-Raine, fresh off her Olympic win, approached GM Canada with the concept of creating a strong Canadian series for up-and-coming Canadian alpine racers. The original Pontiac Cup series was launched, and out of it came some of Canada's best alpine racers, including Kathy Kreiner, Gerry Sorensen, Laurie Graham, Karen Percy and the Crazy Canucks. Forty years later, the GMC Cup series is continuing to serve as the ultimate training ground for Canada's World Cup stars.
