Default ??? 1/8 mile times ???

I was just wondering what everyone thought of my times i put down last night. I feel like they were slow, but i'm not sure. My car is a 02 T/A ws6, m6, with 4.10's in the stock rear, and a smooth bellow. I just added a zex wet kit sprayin a 75 shot, and nitto 555r drag radials(prob. about shot). So, here is my motor times. 60 ft. - 2.113
1/8et - 8.80
1/8mph - 83.43 This was the best of 2 runs, and i was having a problem with traction.

Times on 75 shot.
60ft. - 1.86
1/8et - 8.08
1/8mph - 88.46 This was the best of 5 runs, and traction was a little better. I did have an overall best 60ft. time of 1.78, but for some reason i only ran a 8.28 at 87.34mph.
I'm guessing my bottle pressure was low, as i dont have a bottle heater, and the temp yesterday was mid 80s, and less last night. So, please let me know what you think, Should i be doing better(thats how i feel) or is this about right.

not bad for your mods.

I ran nittos on my stock rear and never even had extra noise cuz of them. It took me about 50 passes on my 294/45/17 Mickey ET radials to blow my rear and the last 10 or so i was trying to! lol

That's not bad for the mods and weather time of year. I'm sure the bottle had decent pressure if it was full (or close to it). My nitrous system has a heater and I haven't had to use it since April, as the bottle is normally at 950-1000 psi at the lowest during summer months.
