street tires you'll want to gradually mash the accelerator, not all at once. You want to get the car moving and the weight shifting back to the rear tires. With a proper set-up suspension, you can hook even with street tires. I've gone 1.71 on the 60 foot on my non-drag 275/60/15 radials, but it's a fine line getting there I have a 3400 stall 10" convertor and I stall to about 1500 rpm on launch.
