Put it in "R" for race and you should be just fine!!! J/K Drive or overdrive both work the same for me-the computer does what it wants to anyway. The only way to know what your truck likes is to go to the track and experiment. <img border="0" alt="[Burnout]" title="" src="graemlins/burnout.gif" />

For someone with no timeslips or dyno #'s, you sure talk a lot of ****. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

start out in "D", after the tranny shifts from 1-2, drop it to 2nd & leave it. that's all you should need. <img border="0" alt="[Truck]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_truck.gif" />
