No Traction No Time.
Motor built for low end torque... Well I have plenty of that! Went to the track this past Friday night. Ran 4 runs with a best of 14.99@ 98mph spinning the tires all the way.. Tried warming them up, soft launch then step on it, Hit it hard at mid track and still spins... I know this truck can do a low 13 or even upper 12.. What can I do to the rear to make it hook?

Caltracs or assasin bars and some sticky tires.
I spin hard with a stock 4.8L, 2500 stall, and 4.10 gears on street tires if I'm up on my stall.

Nitto's NT420s 285/50R20 116H all four corners. I even let air out to 30 psi. The rear end is a 3.73 with 31.5" tall tires. Going through the traps either in 2nd gear or just going into 3rd as I pass. Needing experienced feedback as to which way to go with this.. I do agree. Sticky MT Drag radials may be on my short list.
