Default Low 60' times?

How the heck can I get my 60' times down, they are embarrasing, 2.4 is my lowest, I race on a pretty slick track, that dont help much but i'm sure there is something I can do, I have a 2000 Z28 M6, stock, i've tried diff. RPM ranges, I found 1400 is my best bet, it got me my lowest 60' times, which aaren't really that low, what tire pressure is good, eagle gs-c tires. Does someone of any good suggestions I could try? Thanks!

do a very small burnout out of the water to get the crap off your tires. line up OUT of the racing groove. street tire rubber and drag slick rubber dont make a very good combination. and just keep working on different launches and practice practice practice!!!!!!!!
