Basic head work / porting FAQ 140-160 ALL

I race Remote Control Cars, which use a single cylinder two stroke engine that I ported about a year back. All I did was take a dremel to the ports (the cylinder was made of brass with chrome inside) and smooth out the corners. Got a bit more power but the motor also got tempermental unless it was tuned just right. I'm not sure how this will compare to porting a cast iron head. Is it the samw concept with real cars?
