2wd or 4wd for dd rcsb street/drag racing
I am looking to get a rcsb 99-02 and wasnt to sure what to go with. What is the best for a dd turbocharged truck that will see a good amount of 1/8 mile drag racing.

Best is always a matter of opinion but I love my AWD for dd duties. I don't have to press any switches or shift any levers if I feel like racing, just depress the loud pedal. I had the Autotrac case before and it was ok but to race I had to put it in 4X4 not the Auto option because that would allow some slippage before engaging and the truck would jerk around. Of course very sticky rear tires solves the traction issue on dry pavement.
I can walk away from my Vette from a stop, of course that doesn't last long

My AWD truck will leave my Vette (on street tires) through the top of first gear and it weighs 1400 lbs more.
The originator of the post said he wanted to have a drag racer and a daily driver that is why I think AWD/4x4 is a slightly better choice.
Of course everyone ultimately has to choose for themselves.

besides, we arent talking about rwd cars, we are talking about very poorly balanced (weight-wise) trucks, i have yet to see a truck pull the front tires on the street, in person or on vid
