"Lazy" will not produce the desired results.
Post all the specs of your combo, you may receive some suggestions.

Here it is off the top of my head!
2002 Camaro
3310 lb with driver (GTFA)
327/275(299 adjusted) (Heads up heads/intake/Boburka q-jet)
1.98 PG
5900 Stall 8in Converter
6.00 Rear gear
3073R 31.25/12.2R15W Mickey Thompson Radials (100 inch circumference)
4 Link rear suspension
QA1 Single adjustable front shocks
It has went 10.68 at 125.71 only 60 footing 1.46-1.47 not spinning a lick. The front end is as loose as it goes and it probably lifts the wheels 6-10 inches after full separation.
I feel as if the MPH is decent and the motor was just on the dyno to confirm that it has enough power to go much quicker than what it has.
What am I missing?
Is there a half second of ET in chassis tuning?
Converter?
I know everything is not optimum but I feel like with what I have, I should be closer to the ballpark than this.
Any help on four link bar adjustments, spring rates, suggestions, etc. would be very helpful.
Thanks,
JP
