Best way to launch?

I had a friend of mine ask me the other day, And cause Im not into dragging my truck, I didnt know how to answer him. I figured this would be the place to ask. My question....What would be the best way to launch a mostly stock truck(only intake and exhaust) to get the best time from stop light to stoplight or the 1/4 mile??? Would you get better times using tow/haul? o/d off? 4x4? 4x2? Just curious. Thanks

4x4 boosted launch od on, but its not the best thing for a stock tranny, even with no mods.

Only way to get a good launch is boosted in 4wd just not good on stock tranny. Even staying under 10 psi wont keep you from smokin the TC.
