anyone get under 2.00 60' time on street tires?

i keep running 12.2 @ 116 mph or 117mph. I cant seem to get my 60'time under 2.00. Anyone able to get a better short time on regular (not DR or ET streets) street tires? If so how do you launch?

I have all the boltons...stock twins and motor.

Last time out I managed a 2.02 on really crappy treaded 225s. I have some good 245s now so I think I should be able to manage a 1.9x next time I'm out. I just rev to 4k, and dump the clutch rolling to the floor simultaneously. It really helps if the track is prepped well.
