We also had Sterling Marlin drive Billy Hagan's Firebird at Watkins Glen for the 90 minute race we ran in conjunction with the NASCAR race. I remember the interview and he talked about how much is was a real stock car. Even Al Unser Jr (when he was at his peak) drove a Saturn.
As for IMSA trying to do Trans-Am. Remember when Andy Evans tried that? It didn't work too well. On the other hand he sold the Speedvision Series (which was Firehawk which is Conti today) because it wasn't professional enough. Also, Andy did lots of things that made no sense.
