It was however very short lived, with the two Irish Associations withdrawing from the competition in 1973-74 (from 1974 to 1975 competing in a separate 'Irish' Texaco Cup) and after the withdrawal of Texaco's sponsorship in 1975, it became the Anglo-Scottish Cup.

 Ganassi putting stock in Montoya - The Boston Globe
The former Formula One driver, who had just three races worth of experience in a stock car, all on the Busch Series, will run with the big boys tomorrow after qualifying 29th for the Ford 400, turning a lap of 175.581 miles per hour in the Chip Ganassi-owned No. 30 Texaco/Havoline Dodge.

"I finished the Cup practice and I didn't think I was going to make the show," said Montoya, who qualified on the second lap of a two-lap run.

He continued to perform at domestic level for Victoria and on the English county scene, and in the 2003-2004 season scored a remarkable 1381 runs in the Pura Cup, overtaking Graham Yallop's previous record (which was succeeded the very next year in 2004/05 by Michael Bevan).
