History
Nations Cup evolved from the GT Production category, which was created in 1995 by category managers PROCAR Australia. For 2000, PROCAR split The Australian GT Production Car Championship into two separate series so that the more exotic GT cars such as Porsche 911s and Ferrari 360s could compete in the new Australian Nations Cup Championship and the lesser vehicles such as the Mitsubishi Lancers and Subaru Imprezas could now compete for outright wins in the revised Australian GT Production Car Championship.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.”
—Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“History takes time.... History makes memory.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
