I'd try shifting a little higher than that. More like 5500-5700 and see if anything changes. You should be able to get better than a 2.1 60ft. time with more practice. Try slipping the clutch out some instead of just letting it fly. Or buy some drag radials...and since you don't drive your car often, it's not like you are going to wear them out quick or anything. My BFG drag radials lasted me over 5,000 miles and hook up great on the street and pretty good at the track. I think my best 60ft. time on the drag radials was a 1.8...on z-rated street tires was a 2.0.
If you are still not getting the times you should after doing some changes...your injectors may be clogged. How many miles are on your motor?
