Maybe next time I dont use launch control on stock converter and just brake and once the light change smash the gas instead.

Hmmm, maybe the launch control hurt your mph at the 1/8 to some extent?
As far as techniques, I was just doing T/C off (single tap of TC button), not Launch Control, for the 11.5 plain street tire run. If you want to try turning off the nannies and driving the car like I was doing (without LC and without TC), then my opinion is that you will need to apply the throttle carefully, instead of just smashing it, on the plain street tires. Mine with the 275 PS4 on the back was sketchy anyway, and was still spinning at the top of first gear on the 11.5 run.
