* Listener E-Mail
* Save Mark Bracks!
* Call with David Podolsky of Chicken Hawk Racing
* Lame military jokes and an update on my son in boot camp

Fantastic call with David Podolsky of Chicken Hawk Racing about what exactly is going on with those round black things and why you might want to warm them up before a track day or race. Lots of interesting info in this call. Before we get to that, we have several great e-mails to talk about, ranging from corrections from the last show to suspension advice to more about the Barry Sheene video and bad bad news about Mark Bracks and what you can do about it. Lots of good stuff today and we even finish up with a little bit of Marine Corps chitchat about my son, who is currently in Marine Corps boot camp. There might even be an Air Force joke in here, if you listen carefully. Good stuff, download the show and listen!

* News (sort of), e-mail, and odds n ends
* Laguna Seca Travel Notes Redux
* Call with Liam Shubert!

The show is a little bit all over the map today, but we have some really good stuff. We talk about several newsy sort of items and some great listener e-mail and then we have a call with Liam Shubert of the D'Antin Ducati Team. It's been a while since we talked with Liam and we've got some catching up to do!

* Still More About Track Bikes, But Brief
* Chat with Jules Cisek About Possible Control ECU
* Toseland Going On A Diet!
* Rossi Gonna Stick Around For Five More Years

Fairly quick show this week with some reader e-mail, talking a little bit about track bikes and how great they are plus a really cool Barry Sheene bio that's going to be shown on the UK Biography Channel and maybe with some luck, we'll see it in the US. We also chat with Jules about some news that popped up in the last week or so where Carmelo Ezpeleta has said in the press that he thinks a control ECU would be a good thing for MotoGP (Carmelo needs to put down the crack pipe) and some other odds and ends of newsy type things. We're not going to have a show on January 4th, so make this one last until the 11th!
