    Screenshot_20201021-211100_Video Player.jpg Theres a farm near me that hold dirt drags random times thought out the year. I have. 2019 Trd pro that I race when they have grudge races. I'm like 50/50 in my races.
    5.0 f150s usually run me down towards the end if I get out 1st. If I'm not out 1st I dont stand a chance. Im looking for tips to lower my time and get some more wins! Maybe even spend some money for aftermarket parts. No superchargers for 19/20 and wouldn't spend that kind of money to grude race for fun. Lol Would it be beneficial to run in sport mode and manually shift. Would this lower my time?? Suggestions??

    Long tube headers. I think that'll give you +/- 50hp depending on the exhaust. Ask Keith, @dirtydeeds

    Depending on your tire size you might benefit from a re-gear as well.

    more than I can list here
    Give Keith Carty 760-877-4234 (Dirty Deeds Industries) a call. This is right up his alley. He drags his 2013 Tundra in an 1/8 mile frequently and is pretty untouchable.

    Thanks all! Figured I'd have to get with Keith @dirty deeds. Any idea if times would be quicker in sport mode where you shift yourself? Also didnt realize our trucks would gain that much from long tube headers. So again thanks.

    A single fogger nozzle will spray enough fuel/nitrous for a solid 100hp. :thumbsup:

    I hear if you paint your truck white, you'll win more.

    sport mode shifts too slow IMO, tow haul mode would work best

    if you have the stock wheels, run a smaller tire for the drags

    and practice your reaction time
