Platinum was the in thing years ago but is being replaced by iridium. All NGK platinum plugs are now superseded to iridium plugs as iridiums is a better conductor than platinum. at the power you state I would think 7's would be too hot but then again how cool is it where you are?

I just moved to Indiana from NY. It'll be about the same ass-biting cold during the winter. I'm living in Indianapolis where there are lots of stoplights but I'll often be south of here on the twisties of Brown county. Come spring, I'll hope to be frequenting the track. If possible, I need plugs that can withstand traffic and the racetrack.
Will spirited driving clean a sooty plug (if the plug is a hot enough heat range on boost?)
Spuggy, thanks for the links. Interesting patent. When you say that your W3's haven't fouled, does this mean that harder driving keeps them clean, or that traffic doesn't get them dirty...or both?
