I still remember the first pass I ever made. It takes time, and you'll get a lot better with practice.
Sounds like your launch was too aggressive. I am assuming you have an MT? You definitely don't want to dump the clutch with street tires. More or less have to feather out a little bit.
Just make sure you stage as shallow as you, just enough to set off the stage light. This will give you the most rollout and faster speed/time.
A lot of tracks still bracket race 1/8th mile, so they have been testing/tuning for that.
