I've always had better luck with tires that have softer sidewalls even if they are a less grippy compound. Let air out, and then the sidewall flex helps keep the tires gripping at the launch v.s. spinning when there is no give in the sidewalls.

The azenis are better than most simply b/c of the really grippy compound. But if you go to a tire with a slightly less grippy compound but a softer sidewall, you can cut even better times.
