Just get him super pissed before the race so hopefully he floors it from the start. That way, he would probably spin all the way through second and you might be ahead for a couple seconds.
You could make sure he spins out by putting some oil on his tires

As the other poster said, you might not want to rule out nitrous if you're serious. Performance/value factor is huge. The torque will hit you like a ton of bricks. Of course it's somewhat of a calculated risk. But, CAI, chips, headers, exhaust, TB, etc. amount to a few hp at best. What's absurd about all these items is that you could easily dump $1000-1500 and barely notice the difference.

One other option would be a 4.56:1 ring & pinion. You might hold him off to the 60 ft. mark.

Dammit, if you have an Edge, just get some gas, set it to level III and select custom tune. Set shift for 4,4,3, WOT setting at 1.9, and floor it. I raced a guy up the street that had the Screw version of the Tundra, and kicked his @ss. He didn't know I was chipped though, and I thought my transmission was going to explode doing it. I won though...screw him.

That was probably a pre-07 Tundra, or it wasnt a 5.7L engine/6speed.

Forget the CAI. Get a tuner, and change just the rear gear now to 4.10s (4.56 if you have the 32 plus tires). You can do the front later.

^^^^^ I like these two ideas. If for some reason, you still lose, you didn't lose wasting $1,200.

lol You sir have been smoking some serious crack and I would like some. The new Tundra will smoke either a 1500 or F-150....by a LOT.

Nothing sort of a Supercharger or NOS will beat these things with an F-150unless you have some SERIOUS bolt-ons and motor work.
