Get a pair of drag radials of your choice. Then see how it hooks. Then work on your suspension mods/parts. Most people usually put money into the suspension first (me included) and then wonder why they didn't get much improvement in traction by doing it on regular radials.
Get sticky tires first and go from there.

did you spin any? you could lower you tire psi to get a better take off.
what was your timing set at? an AFPR would be a nice mod for you.

gears are killing you...as well as the 60' could be improved.
What i do or used to do when i had my auto is powerbrake it right till the point when the tires start to spin i think it was like 1200 rpm? then ease onto the gas and i managed a 1.9 60 ft on street tires.
You should see 13s with gears and a good 60 ft.
