There's some great advice in this thread, especially the part about the low rpm launch and taking the driveline slack up with the clutch. I typically launch my Cobra at 2200-2500 rpm, no higher. With a Jag IRS and Nitto DR's I get 1.6-1.7 60' consistently, with best time of 11.7 @ 116. Here's a video of it (notice that the launch is fairly undramatic, it just hooks and goes ):
