A 2.0 60 is quite good,you should have been above 100.

I was afraid to launch my car all that hard at first, and I was getting 2.3 60' times. Then I said screw it, and revved up to about 6K rpms and dropped it. Wisconsin has described it before... you can feel a good launch. The tires spin a little bit then they catch and off you go! You have to adjust the rpms that you launch at as the weather conditions change though. What worked in the afternoon when the sun was out and it was warm did NOT work when it was cool outside and the sun was down.
I don't know why I wasn't trapping higher though. I could have sworn I was shifting quickly. I must not have been shifting quickly enough.
