That sucks. I get 2.3-2,4 0-60 ft times with my 82 and its no drag car.
There are alot of factors that can cause poor 60 ft times so ill just go
over the basics. 

Improper launch RPM. (lots of fixes for this including clutch slipping,
lower RPM)
Alignment
suspension setup
lotsa weight in the car

Thats the basics. Anything sound possible?
