How to gap a TRX with a tuned Ranger Raptor (drag race)

[Mad_Motorhead]

Saturday I went to Carolina Dragway in Aiken, SC and I Raced a TRX and not only beat him I put a gap on him. Then the next race he beat me fun times , Mods Ford Procal tune and Wagner intercooler. I am impressed by this truck, 13.40 at 100 mph

Man I miss going to Jackson/Carolina Dragway!! I Bet I’ve made 300-400 passes down that track between 1988-2018, finally Went back a few months ago with my Son and his Mustang.

Looked like you tree’d him and laid down a good run!

Did you make any runs on the RR before the tune and intercooler, stock?

Awesome! she can run 12s for sure

He smoked the tires on that pass, on the next one I spun/ wheel hopped, I tried launching to high, the trick is 2000-2200 launch rpm

Maybe after a Downpipe, cold air intake and some better wheels and tires.

What drive mode settings did you use? I assume “Sport”?
I bet that felt good to see him in your rear view mirror.

Baja , better shift points, holds boost better and softer suspension for weight transfer

We have a member here that went 12.95 with just the ford Performance tune.

Hell yeah! Thanks for sharing this! Any reason you went Wagner vs Process West on the intercooler? Looking to upgrade mine soon
