i used to launch my dakota 4X4 in 4wd then shift into 2wd on the fly. seemed to net me the best launches then you also dont have that drag on the top end of the track to deal with.

What does his reaction time have to do with it? It doesn't start until you move...

2.4 60 is slow as *****...gears, stall, & 4wd launch should get you moving nicely out of the hole.

Even with gears and a stall he shouldn't need to use 4wd at the dragstrip. Come on guys, even with a few more mods he's only going to be in the 14's. That's hardly needing 4wd to launch.
