Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio.

This has to be said right up front, Mike has a toothache and is in pretty bad shape.  Hopefully he get it fixed up at the creepy dentist tomorrow.

As they say, the show must go on!

A caller by the name of Shawn calls in.  Looking for a valve train tech, and boy that is a subject.  When it comes to valve train it's all about stability.  People end up building on knowledge over the years, and can't replace practical experience and testing.  The guys will steer him right over Facebook.

Speaking of testing and knowledge, Jason Harding from Katech joins the guys tonight.

Mike framed this well in the beginning of the show, if you don't know who Katech is you need to do a little research.  Katech has been around the track just a few times, and by around the track we mean multiple wins in the 24 hours of Dayton, 24 hours of Le Mans, and just about every other form road racing event on the planet.  Yes, Mike is a major fan, and you should be too.  Jason discusses where they are now, and what they can do for the average guy looking for the right stuff.  Think about this for a second, this is a racing outfit that builds the power to run full on for 24 hours!  

We think the best way to say this is, you can't get more serious than Katech.

Hosted by Mike, Tom, and Tad, The Power and Speed Podcast digs into the raw, unfiltered world of automotive performance, where those two concepts reign supreme. This isn't a polished studio show; it's a garage conversation that roams wherever the scent of racing fuel leads. One week, the discussion might dissect the engineering behind blistering runs at the Texas Mile, and the next, it could drop you into the gritty, spontaneous atmosphere of local street and grudge racing scenes. The podcast regularly features voices from across the racing spectrum, from top-tier professional drivers to the master builders behind the engines and chassis that make extreme performance possible. You'll hear technical debates, personal stories from the track, and passionate explorations of whatever racing subject has the hosts' attention that week. Brought to you by Readington Digital, each episode is built for those who understand that in the pursuit of going faster, the details-and the people-are everything. Tune in for a genuine, wide-ranging take on the culture and mechanics of speed.
