Suggestions to improve 60ft on track

hello .. just looking for some suggestions or advice on how to improve my 60ft on drag strip

I've tried these launching methods so far
1. race start
2. s+ traction sport and stomp it
3. s+ traction sport hold brake rev 2000 and stomp
4. s+ traction off hold brake rev 2000 and stomp

the best 60ft i got was 1.805 / 1/4 11.04 @124.75 mph

stock pirelli street tires
car is 2014 cls63s AWD

mods: tune, Upd spacers + filter( greens filter) + e85 mixed Canadian 94 chevron. fuel level 1/2 tank.

am i maxed out with those numbers for the mods i have or i can break 10s possibly or even 11 flat?

Nice meeting you too! Are you getting any wheel spin when you use the race launch? If not, maybe they could update your tune to raise the race start rpms a bit?
