Ladies and gentlemen, brace yourselves for the latest episode of Cleetus McFarland's YouTube channel, where they embark on an extraordinary adventure at Sparks Motor Shop. Prepare to witness the unveiling of a mind-blowing creation that is set to revolutionize the way we conquer the snow. Introducing the snow rail, a beastly Whipple supercharged sand rail that has been ingeniously modified with tracks for ultimate snow performance.

The team at Sparks Motors have left no stone unturned in their pursuit of perfection. They've replaced key internal components with sturdy metal, ensuring that this snow rail can handle the immense power it possesses. And let's not forget the Timber sled ski in the front, a genius addition that brings the best of both worlds - the track in the back and the ski in the front. The custom bracketry is a sight to behold, encompassing the stock control arms and providing unparalleled stability.

But that's not all, folks. This snow rail is equipped with a cutter brake, allowing for precise steering control. With a simple pull or push of the brake handle, you can adjust the speed of each track, giving you the ability to navigate even the trickiest of terrains. And let's not forget the added comfort features, such as the manual windshield wiper and heated seats. It's clear that no detail has been overlooked in the creation of this winter wonder.

The moment of truth arrives as they lower the snow rail to the ground, revealing its awe-inspiring ride height. With bated breath, they put it to the test on a concrete floor, and boy, does it deliver. The snow rail moves with ease, showcasing its impressive maneuverability and leaving no doubt that it's ready to conquer the snow-covered landscapes. However, they do encounter a minor setback with the tracks lifting up when off throttle, but rest assured, they are determined to address this issue and make the necessary adjustments.

With the initial test a success, it's time to take the snow rail outside and unleash it in the snow. And unleash it they do, as they effortlessly glide through the winter wonderland, leaving behind a trail of pure exhilaration. The burnout they perform is a testament to the power and capability of this remarkable machine. The team expresses their gratitude to the masterminds at Sparks Motors for making this incredible project a reality.

Now, the real challenge lies ahead as they prepare to take the snow rail to a cabin buried under seven feet of snow. Will it triumph in the deep powder? Only time will tell. But one thing is for certain, this snow rail is a game-changer in the world of winter adventures. Stay tuned for the next episode, where Cleetus McFarland and his team will push the limits of this snow-conquering beast and bring us along for the ride of a lifetime.
