Question Where's my 60ft's?

I borrow some slicks and skinnies for the weekend and took it to the track. The previous weekend on my 17" C5's ad borrowed MT drag radials on snowflakes I had the best of a 1.79 60ft. bone stock suspension but the car isn't spinning. I come back this weekend with full slicks and my best was a 1.772. I'm going back to the track tomorrow around lunch. Car is a full bolt on A4 Auto. 231/237 cam, performabuilt transmission, 3600 stall, ls6 heads, ls6 intake, etc. Any ideas? I've tried leaving anywhere from 1200 to 2500 and still no better. 15psi in the rears btw.

If you're not spinning leave at 3600.

Yeah, try stalling to 1200-1500 or so and letting the converter flash on green. I just went thursday night and with a smaller cam, 3.73's and a 3200 stall went 1.61 with my heavy 17x9.5 zo6 replicas on the front and a little 255/50/16 bfg dr on back, with a full weight caged convertible, so something doesn't sound quite right there...

I found out that my 02 bank was shorting my "engine Sensor Fuse" causing my MAF ad MAP sensor to fail. The 02 was up against the passenger side header and melted it in half, causing my fuse to keep going out. Thanks to my tuner...just need another Friday night now
