i agree Jimmy, Robin hooked me up with the McCoy 8, 30% nitro deal over a year ago & it kicks butt. he has an intimate experience with a variety of mills.

a good thread on glow plugs would be beneficial to be able to link to peeps when they ask the question; it gets asked a lot.

a lot of peeps think that plug temp selection is based on outside temps. ive even heard a worker behind the counter at a hobby shop explain glow plug selection this way to a customer.
