Your trapspeeds are high for the 1/8 which means you need more hook at the line. Get lighter wheels with smaller tires. I didn't have much trouble with my old economy 195/60-15s or hell go with 205/50-15s on 2 light wheels. I don't think an exhaust would help much, if you wanted to just unbolt the muffler at the track.

: I went to the maxima meet in Fayetteville, NC last night. Here are my new best numbers:

: R/T .284
: 60' 2.417
: 330' 6.591
: 1/8 10.006
: 72.46 mph
: 1/4 15.441
