Default Next traction mod ?

After my first several times racing I was completely unhappy with my 60' times. I have a 2000 SS with a Vortech and MMS H/C. With ET Streets 26x11.5x16 I was only getting a 1.79-1.82 60' times.
What will improve my 60' most dramatically LCA's or the torque arm. What about the Random Tech torque arm?
What company do youy think is the best. I will probably want a race only LCA.

Carlsbad is the worst track as far as traction goes.The first time I ever raced there I had F1'S my best 60' time was 2.224.After that I ordered LCA's PHR SFC's and Nittos,the Nittos were much better on the street than the f1's but at Carlsbad all that only gave me a 2.221 60'.I think you probably need a 15' wheel and true slick not the DOT kind.Its been 2 years since I've been there but I doubt it is any better,Im going to order some 15x7.5 convo pros and a 26x9x15 Hoosier slick.When I get my converter put in Im not even sure that tire is going to be enough.

With all the HP you must have you should probably get 15x10 with a 27-28" tire and 11.5 wide.

Torque arm would be my next traction mod.
