i would say try to feather the clutch out of the hole to help stop tire slip although it will wear your clutch more... a clutch and some good drags will lower those 60'ft times and that will help a lot.

Definitely need to slip the clutch a little more. I think with some practice you could probably pull those 60's down into the 2.0's on street tires. With your mods, you can expect your trap speeds to be right around 80 - 82 once you do get some tires that'll allow you to go full throttle sooner.
