kmchow should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
ETCC Alfa Evo 3???

ALFA ROMEO 75 IMSA EVO III ETCC by Dutchman Bob van der Sluis?

Has anyone heard of this car? What was it's racing pedigree/history? Did it do well? I've never heard of this car?

So the car raced in IMSA here in the USA? Did they really race in the ETCC against the Ford Cossies and 190Es?

I have a feeling a 75 did run in the ETCC, but I'm sure it wouldnt have been an IMSA spec one like shown

Alfa did race the 75 Turbo in the ETCC/WTCC in 1986 and 1987. Here's a link to a page showing the cars on Frank de Jong's excellent ETCC history website.

Fair point - perhaps the car was originally an ETCC-spec 75 but has been upgraded by the current owner?

Quickly googled Alfa and IMSA and it came up with this picture and this page - it looks to me as if "IMSA" in the car name does not have anything to do with the US sportscar series.
