Spark Plug Recommendation

I'm browsing through Pelican's spark plug offerings and there must be at least 10-15 options for my 86 Carrera. Can someone recommend a good plug for a car that is strictly used for racing?

Thanks a bunch

These are our favorite choice.

You just need to select a heat range depending on your engine specs and fuel used.

usually copper plugs for 911's. EFI cars could use a different plug.
if unsure of heat range start with a cold plug and work up to a hotter one.

what do you have in there now.
how many miles
how do they look.

stay away from bosch platinum's, period.
