Subject: [Ferrari] 100,000 mile spark plugs....

As racing season is coming up, I decided to change the spark plugs in my Z06.  
Never done that before.  The car has 102K miles on it, all on the same set of 
plugs.  I've run the car in 24 Open Road Races, so about 2400 of those miles 
were at 140+ mph.  Most of the rest were freeway miles, but I expected some 
significant wear on the electrodes.  I (with much difficulty) pulled them out, 
and, much to my surprise,...they looked pretty much brand new.  Few deposits.  
Little change to the electrodes.  Amazing.

I've attached a picture.  New vs. old plugs.
