Can fouled plugs be Cleaned and reused?

I was running 103 VP unleaded race gas today. I found myself idleing the car for long periods and
notice the car does not have the same get up and go after. I heard running race gas at idle will foul your plugs.

Can you clean these? And what do you use to clean them?

Or should I even bother...and just buy some new plugs?

thanks... jc.

Our plugs are so freaking exspensive...!

New is better but you can clean them...

Now usually they dont foul like piston engines, they just wear out.... Kind of hard to explain without a picture... Maybe someone has some pics and they can break it down for you bro..

GOOD LUCK

I don't know if you have one there, but I can get my NGK's at Advance Auto Parts for like $5.00 each or so.
