You need to get better traction. And better weight transfer. And having the back end squat is not the way to do it. You might be better off with some adjustable shocks up front and a different spring.
We just put a new set of AFCO shocks on the rear of my car(we had QA1 on before). We improved the 60ft from a 1.38 to a 1.36. Well worth the money.
