Default Something off?

Will someone look at this an tell me if something looks off about it?

R/T - 0.81 secs
60' - 2.38 secs
330' - 6.11 secs
1/8mi - 9.02 secs @ 86.74mph
1000' - 11.48 secs
1/4mi - 13.56 secs @ 110.24

That trap speed seems really off to me. The car is 1999 Z28, lid/catback, M6, 3.42's. Left off of idle, spun through 1st. Track prep was minimal. Don't have temps or DA for that day.

only thing that seems off to me is the ET but that is due to your 60ft time. get some sticky tires and youll be in the 12s. a friend of mine has a 01ss m6 with LTs and a few other bolt ons, car is tuned, consistently runs 12.9s on street tires so id say your doing pretty good.

Even if you can turn a 2.0 60ft you will turn a 12.9s. Because every .1 better 60ft is like .2 in the 1/4..

The tires are Falken Ziex Ze-502 P245/50R16 96H M+S. The are called "All Season Performance Tires" but were just some cheap ones they had in stock that I had put on before a long road trip.

The pass was made on a minimally prepped track without a burnout. The track was cold, I was the first car in my lane, and it was several hours after sundown.

Any advice as to launching the car better on these tires?
