In this adrenaline-fueled episode from the Cleetus McFarland channel, the team embarks on a relentless mission to revive their beloved car, Ruby. With a reputation for being a speed demon, Ruby has encountered her fair share of mechanical woes. But fear not, for the team is determined to bring her back to life.

Their first task is to tackle the balancer, which they swiftly remove with precision. As they inspect the cam shaft gears, they realize the importance of timing in this high-performance machine. It's a delicate dance between power and precision, and they're determined to get it just right.

But it's not just about the mechanical prowess of Ruby. The team also dives into the world of wiring, a realm that has caused them headaches in the past. With wires tangled like a spider's web, they embark on a rewiring mission, determined to eradicate any past issues. They even uncover evidence of a rat who had taken up residence in the car, adding an unexpected twist to their already challenging journey.

Next on the agenda is the rear end upgrade. The team discovers a cracked axle, a testament to the sheer power and mileage Ruby has endured. Undeterred, they set out to replace the rear end with a full floater, ready to withstand the demands of their high-octane adventures.

As the sparks fly and the metal is cut away, the team's dedication to perfection shines through. They know that every cut, every weld, brings them closer to their goal of resurrecting Ruby. And with Sick Week just around the corner, the pressure is on to get both Ruby and their other cars ready for the ultimate showdown.

In this thrilling episode, the Cleetus McFarland team showcases their unwavering determination and skill as they work tirelessly to revive Ruby. With mechanical challenges, wiring nightmares, and a cracked axle, they face a multitude of obstacles. But with their expertise and passion for speed, they are on track to conquer it all. Stay tuned for the epic conclusion as Sick Week draws near and the team prepares to unleash their high-performance machines onto the world.
