whatt the hell are you talking about??? that's exactly what i said -- platinums last longer, not copper!! what the hell kinda newbie do you take me for??

but yeah, what you said is true.

btw, my friend, which is a "real racer" in your terms, has copper plugs in his car and he has always changed it at 2000 miles. he drove it to 3500 one time and then bang, engine rebuild #2. maybe it's because it's an FI car.
