What the HELL???? I've never raced before... but tonite I tried to race a buddy in a 06 Furd f150 gasser and got wiped off the line and took me QUITE a while to catch up too.... What might I have done wrong? All I did was floor it when the light turned green. Should I have done a "brake stand" first to get the turbo spooled or what? What should I do differently to KILL him next time? BTW........Predator on 65 WITH boost stick.

A gasser will always kill you off the line if you don't powerbrake a bit... Not much past 1500 though or you'll just spin out...

I wouldnt spool very high on the street with stock shocks, no sleeves, bars in the air etc.
4x4 is your friend but play around by yourself first. Start low and work up. If the nose comes up hard(not sits you back but if your hood rises way up), you break traction, or it feels funky in anyway dont go any higher. Also dont turn on pavement in 4x4.
Get straitght were you are going to launch at, 4x4, roll forward a bit if your not rolling forward already, stop and bring it up to what ever RPM or boost you leave at. Let off break and mash throttle. :D Hang on. Let off throttle and click her in 2wd.
...and unless I missed something in your signature (which is possible) you will then need to go get a new tranny...
