I get the feeling that your car isn't that quick.
I've never run a 3-speed, but here's what I think I would do in your situation. I'd launch the car hard, then put it on the throttle stop. Have your shifter hooked to a timer which would put the car in 2nd gear shortly after the throttle stop turns on. When the car goes wide open again, I'd either have some way to put the car in 3rd based on RPM or just shift it by hand at the desired RPM.

To be honest I have no clue what it runs...........I run at altitude 4000ft. This is an all new combo 445ci SBF, C4 trans, 486 gears. 2260# with me in it.
Just fired the motor first time last Sunday while everyone was watching super bowl.
