I just had a long conversation w/ a guy who races revo's and work at my lhs. the 2.5 and the 3.3 need a long plug they were made for them. OS. LS3 hot plug is all they use. the long plug gives it the compresion it needs. so thats what i run. mcoy#8 and 58 work ok too. I have been tring diff. plugs and % fuels. thinking of the temp. outside. I'm tring to
keep it simple.20% Byron 2. and hot ls3 plugs, on and off the track =less tuning. hope this helps.

the OS LC3 is a great long reach hot plug and the OS LC4 is an AWESOME long reach medium plug. I use both in my T- Maxx's. Depends on the driving and outside temperature

Mccoy plugs are definitely good ones to go with from the mc8 to the mc59....
