Default some pros help me with this launch?

here is a vid from a 60' test saturday. weight is 3800#....tires et drags 26/10/15 @ 13psi cold...hals 4 on front...6 on back...12 psi in rr airbag....no front sway bar and stock rear sway bar. This is my daily driver so I may have to sacrifice 60' for driveability. This was a mid 1.6 60'. The car keeps the front end up to the 1/8 before it settles back down. I am using the standard adjustable hals....not race ones and LCA are in bottom holes of LCA reloc brackets. Thanks for any insight as I don't think it is doing what its supposed to. It rolls over on the right side a lot brake stalling on the 2 step. Do I need more air pressure in the bag? Any help is much appreciated!!

At your power level a 1.6 is always a lot of spin. Based on the vid you spun a car length or more. Were you also in the groove?

you really think it spun? I thought it dead hooked.....maybe I am wrong. I would actually welcome spin as opposed to needing more power to 60' better
