Thumbs up

How are you launching? Many people incorrectly load up automatics by holding the throttle down against the brakes while at the line. If you are doing this try leaving the throttle at idle until the green instead. When you are ready just floor it hard. This will allow the engine to accelerate rapidly through the stall speed rather than from the stall speed. This way you can use the momentum of the engine's acceleration to move the car. It can be compared to hitting a nail with a hammer rather than just pushing on it with the same tool.
Hope it helps! Good Luck
