It's the tires. Those tires just suck at the tack. I know, I have a set & can't get traction even at 24 PSI. Hence your high 60's & 1/8 mile's. My 6 speed just spins off the line. 235-45-17 is the correct matching size to 215-50-17. This is what I have.

Yes I do have the same tires in the same size. Can't wait to wear them down so I can get some Toyo T1's. They are fine tires & perform great, they just aren't great for track use.
