I know all about crappy street tires and bad launching as well as bad driving i've got them all  !!!! Try launching off idle/ 1/2 throttle 1st gear because the quad shocks won't line up correctly with the turbo coupe rear axle the previous owner installed (so they don't fit) 
Stang_Crazy you didn't do that bad out there. You seem to be in the general range of what your car can run. Practice makes perfect. You should be able to get it down more.
I'm not wasting any more runs beating up my wheel hopping car until i get some lift bars, Upper C/A's and tires! If you get some suspension your car would launch like a MOFO and you won't have to worry as much about wheel spin
