Default Need to soften 60' times?

Hi guys, Is there a good way to soften (slow) 60' times. I am running 10.0 index and the car is 60'ing real good with the new radials. It is pulling 1.35 60's. Yesterday just pulled a 1.34 60' in 3rd round which made me run under with a 9.97.
I am running a restrictor plate with 1.65 holes and have 200lb of ballast. I am also pulling 4 deg of timing in high gear, Car runs 10.00/132 with a 1.35 60'.
I am running a th400 with an 8" converter. I launch with a trans brake at 3800. I need to keep the brake to hit the pro tree. I am running all stock a body suspension.
I have the slowest mph and best 60' in my class. So it is a little disadvantage getting chased. Getting tired of looking behind me.
