A real what. ( URL please )
The URL is written on the car. ;)

I also found this;
The Alias was one of the 136 vehicles from a total of 111 teams registered to enter the competition.[5][6] It progressed preliminary stages at Michigan International Speedway, survived the shakedown that was completed on 13 May 2010, after which 22 teams remained.[7] Driven by Al Unser, Jr., qualified for the finals in July with other eight vehicles.[8] All battery-electric vehicles went through an efficiency and performance run held on 27 July, with the vehicles making 50 laps around the two-mile Michigan track without exceeding 70 miles per hour or dropping below 45 miles per hour in a chicane along the backstretch.[6] The Alias, driving with a BorgWarner single-speed eGearDrive gearbox transmission,[9] was eliminated in this last track event at the 97 miles out of 100 miles due to controller setting which activated the automatic safety system as a result slowed the vehicle and came to a stop,[6][10][11] positioning the team at a final 4th place in the event.[12]

Thanks for the picture link . Your cars are amazing . I also saw one of my favorite cars of all time . A 1965 Buick Riviera .
Between the two, I liked my parents 1963 Grand Prix. Both were from the "low rider, big-butt" car era. You know "ground hugging weight?" if you know the history of that that saying? :-)

Ahh yeah, those are nice, had a friend that has one in Black.
Spent a small fortune restoring it and doing the color change to black; but the body is like a mirror.
I actually like the 3rd Gen 1973 Boat tails
The Lead Sleds rode so nice down the freeway; sucking gallons of gas the whole way with that monster 455
