You need slicks....
If you are spinning them at the top of first gear then that means you have some serious lag and that is what's killing your 60' times. Now imagine already being into boost off the line instead of doing 30+mph.. It's gonna equal spin city on those tires.. You'll just blow em off.
Do yourself a favor and buy some ET Streets or the equivilent and practice on those. Then you can do like stated above by brake stalling until you start to see boost.
If I launch on anything under 6psi I can only get 2.1 60's. If i bring it up to 6-7psi I will get 1.80s.... That's a HUGE difference in ET capability. MPH doesn't change a ton though. You've seen my videos and watched how i stage right?
