Track Junkies - How often do you change Spark Plugs
People that track their ZR1s (stock). How often and what make plugs do you recommend?

Stock plugs are good for roughly 100k miles. I won't have the car long enough to change the plugs.

I'll go with the 100K interval and factory plugs. I think pooping around slow is probably harder on the plugs than track use.

Thanks guys. Good news.
OT. Check your rear sway bar bushings. My left one is cracked. It is $5 part from parts taxi apparently.

My car is clunking a bit when I hit a sharp bump (it's been doing it for a few thousand miles now) and I bet it's the cracked bushing.
Hope the sway bar doesn't fall off this weekend at Motorsport Ranch.

Had the same issue on the Z06 and it was due to the mounts backing out. Can't tell unless the rear of the car is lifted.
