Guess it depends on the class you're running. I'm by no means a "PRO" racer, but I went a full season on the outta the box top plate in 17.5 boosted. It broke when I had a "failure" of the brain and drove a 13.5 full pull into the end of an 80' ft. straight. I then put on the 4mm (at the start of LAST season), and haven't looked back.
