So when you drag do you start in 4wd then Switch back to 2wd ASAP? Also do you turn traction control and assist off?
Never done much dragging but have a few people that are curious what the e boost will do, want to do it right! Thanks-

You leave it in 4wd all the way down, but Ldecharmoy has a 2wd. Leave traction control off and brake boost to about 2000-2200 rpm and let her rip. Stability control ( if you hold the traction control button down for 4 seconds) does nothing for straight line running, so don't worry about disabling it. It only kicks in if a massive side to side sway occurs. Traction control takes power out and applies ABS as needed. So just a single push of the button will do the trick.

Have you tried launching without holding the brake and gas? This allows the torque converter to flash producing a much more powerful start. Hold the brake lightly enough at the line to prevent the truck from rolling, third yellow light let off the brake and simultaneously slam the throttle to the floor.
