Default new times, not too good

Hey everyone!
Got to the track a week ago for test & tune night, got the C&L & A9L in there, 15 deg timing,seems to be running fine, no hesitations, etc. Iced it down & in 4 tries could only get a 14.133 at 99.53MPH, 2.188 60' time. A guy there told me too much spin off the line(still have street radials)& too much spin in 2nd gear, so I should try to launch at idle next time & 'short-shift' 1st gear to get rid of 2nd gear spinning. I hear tons of people say I can do much better with this setup & then some say that is all a 108K mile 5.0 can do(I know better from reading sigs in this forum). I have issues in launching still & I think that's where I lose a couple/few tenths in ET. I'll keep trying & let you know what happens! Later!

p.s. anyone want to donte some Nittos DR's to the cause?? mccrearys??(lx mike!)
