wait until it cools off and try again. also, you want your oil temp gauge below 220, preferrably 180-200 before starting the run. The ECU starts to pull power at 220, possibly a little before but by 220 its seat of the pants noticable. Oil cooler barely helps in situations like the drag strip because of limited airflow... your mostly putsing around the return lane and pits heat soaking up everything, and the only time you have airflow you are at full throttle anyway... so let the car cool off to 180 oil temp before getting it ready to line up, so its hopefully still under 200 by the time you start the run.
And if your 60' isnt in the 1.8 or better, you need to work on your launch. I was able to get 1.88 and 1.89 on bald stock sport wheels/tires with a stock car, so you should be able to do better than that if you have some decent tires.
