Awesome Modified Subaru is King of Snow and Ice

I want to drive one of these monsters around this winter.

DC Shoes Co-Founder and Rally Team Driver Ken Block collaborates with Subaru to create the worlds fastest cat track operation automobile for backcountry access for snowboarding.

Via Gaijtz:

"Cat tracks and beefed-up suspension allow the modified Subaru to glide along effortlessly on the snow and ice...The car's modifications were prepared by Vermont SportsCar; they included the cat tracks in place of wheels, rally dampers, a hydraulic handbrake and a turbo-charged STI engine.

Although it's not shown in the video, a tow-behind sleigh was also made for the project and designed to haul snowboarders and their gear up the mountain."
