You need a anti roll bar, set it up properly and it will take care of that issue.... I recommend the one from www.teamzmotorsports.net

On a side note:

You aren't yanking the steering wheel when you launch are you, that happens to a lot of guys and you don't realize your doing it.

I second the anti roll bar and use the team z stuff on my car and have cut a 1.29 and many 1.3x 60' with it as of late. Car pulls both wheels 6-8" dead even no flex.

I went to the Frank hawley drag racing school last year. Really helps with driving the car. Saw all kinds of things i was doing wrong. Most the time on launch you can move the wheel and not know it or when you bring your hanh over from the shifter. I have a C4 with a brake in my car and so i only have one hand on the wheel and i hold it like a q-tip

Try to relax you grip on the wheel ,lightly hold the wheel. and the ca will stop moving around on you

As mentioned the anti-roll bar will eliminate the twist,and also help the car go straigth down the track.

Just curious,but it looks like you have rubber/poly motor mounts in your avatar.I thought you had solid mounts.If you dont,try putting some solid mounts in,helps get all the engines torque to the wheels.
