What nitro percentage are you using? People might say that a hot plug is better for the cold and a cold plug in the summer is better but they are wrong. The temp of a glow plug has nothing to do with the outside air temp. If your running 30%, I'd recommend a medium. If your running 20%, a medium to hot plug. For under 20%, a hot plug would be best.
