Here's my approach on my '17 SS manual (100% stock except for Hurst shifter, original 13k mile tires):

• Lower the rear tire pressure to 26psi once you get to the track (GM's recommendation in performance supplement)
• Sport Mode (I'm used to the throttle response in Sport)
• Double click traction control to put system in "Competitive Mode" which turns off TC but leaves some level of stability control in place
• Drive around water box if possible, back up close to it, and do a short burnout just to get debris off the tires and heat them up slightly. Nothing crazy here for the burnout - just a couple seconds.
• Pull up to lights slowly and once you trip the 2nd light, stop immediately
• Rev to 4000 RPM (lower this depending on surface conditions)
• Release clutch smoothly and relatively quickly while increasing accelerator pedal to manage (minimize) wheel spin. Don't let engine speed bog lower than 3000rpm during this exercise if possible
• 100% pedal as quickly as possible based on traction
• No lift shift every gear. I think I start the 1-2 shift around ~6300rpm since that one comes quick, but the others are executed closer to 6450rpm or so.

Using this procedure, my best 60' has been around ~1.9s and best 1/4 mile time is 12.28s at 115.5mph.

Here's a video of that pass (my mic was messed up for some reason!):
