I believe its standard based on the news I've seen about it.

Most likely with whatever package has electronic dampening.

The owner manual http://www.fordservicecontent.com/F...icHRef=G1911271&div=f&vFilteringEnabled=False

appears to say that any version with "drive modes" (toggle switches) (All premiums plus 101A and 301A) will include drag mode. In addition versions with adaptive dampers (MagneRide) optimize the damping for straight line. MagneRide requires a drive mode version and the performance pack. I haven't seen anything that indicates that drag mode requires the performance pack and/or MagneRide but without those you lose the damper optimization capability.

Correct according to everything I've seen including owner manual, order guides, and the build it tool. Drive modes previously were only available with Premium versions. In 2018 they are also available with 101A and 301A. The owner manual has descriptions of what changes in the different drive modes.

Base versions will continue to give the choice of "normal", "sport", T/C "off", and Advance Trac "off".

I don't know if there are any actual drag related performance changes in drag mode if the car doesn't also have MagneRide dampers or the 10A.
