Not an expet here. I have only pulled a 2.2X 60 foot a couple times. The way I improved from a 2.4X was just trying to lauch at different rpms and feathering the clutch. A lower psi on the front tires will help a bit. I just takes practice. I found 3k rpms with 3/4 throttle and modulating the clutch worked for me, but I still have room for improvement. A lot has to do with weather and how sticky of a track you run at. There are guys pulling 2.1X on street tires so I know I can do better.

Buy some slicks! If you really wanted to run a better time, don't bother with street tires because they suck. Buy some lightweight 15in wheels with some 22x8x15 MT slicks. You can get the rims from any junkyard and the slicks from here.

15" wheels don't fit on the front. I tried putting the steelies on the front of my '02 and the dustshield for the brakes prevents the wheel from fitting. Even if the dustshield were cutoff the caliper would be very close to the wheel.
Get some light 16" wheels and it'll be much better.
