The XCup and The Great Race

In the inaugural episode of America’s Automotive Trusts’ podcast, we delve into the exciting world of the XCup division of The Great Race, a fierce competition in classic cars of endurance, precision, and accuracy that covers thousands of miles. The XCup is composed of highschool and college age students who compete for scholarships. But the race is so much more than that.  The XCup along with the RMP Foundation have laid a foundation to educate, support, and encourage youth participation in automotive professions. 

This year’s race started in St. Augustine, Florida and finished in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The event is inspired by the original, around the world, automobile race in 1908.
