Default New Times Suck,Need help, opinions please

Got to track last night and it sucked , My car with mods in my sig ran consistent 12.46s with mid to low 1.84,1.85 short times at 88.41 , 88.37mph in the 1/8 and 110.03, 110.02 in 1/4 in april. Now with a 216/220 cam and 342 gears, I only can muster a 12.53 , 12.61 with a 1.95, 1.86 short time at 88.40 , 87.65mph in the 1/8 110.61, 111.09 in the 1/4. I did spin out the gate on both passes but my mph doesnt seem to good, Something doesnt seem right, Weather is colder , Will lose of traction cause the car not to mph ,The car was dyno tuned and made 32hp more and 50 torque tuned with LS1 edit, anyone have an Idea .Thanks
