inconsistent 60ft

I have varying 60' times on my 67 camaro. Each weekend the 60' starts out great with the first pass being the quickest and the last past the slowest.
1st pass 1.43
2nd pass 1.50
3rd pass 1.56
4th pass 1.61

This is the typical scenario. The amazing thing is it starts all over the next weekend.

The car weighs 2800 lb with me in it. 1550lb on the front.
The car runs 10.60s @ 125-126mph.
horsepower is 575@6800
I run a powerglide with 1.76 low.
I have a 4 link with single adjustable strange shocks.
Front suspension is stock.
I leave on the 2 step at 5000rpm
I currently run hoosier qtp 18.5 x 31.

I have had the transmission and converter checked out. Nothing unusual.

My blame is centering around the tires. Maybe the grooves are holding some water and carry it to the starting line.

Any thoughts??
