Default Lowering Raptor's front end without the hassle,

My Raptor wheelies great, but when drag racing I don't need the wheelies any ideas for lowering the front end. I'm looking for something that can be installed, but returned to original form quickly. All ideas are welcomed....

why not just strap it down using ratchet straps? drag racers do it all the time as a cheep way to limit suspension..... just my .02

Thanks..... everyone for the information. I drag race sometimes 1/8 mile on pavement and my Raptor wheelies to much for a great start. This will cure that problem it seems.
