Default 1/4 time question???

Hello guys hope y'all are doing good. I have a question, I used a GPS based application to what my car would run my best 0-60 was 4.5 secs my best and only 1/8 was 7.492 @91.16mph and in the 1/4 mile it did 114.9 mph time sucked because I though the time started when I did but it didnt. Now I just want to see if it's about right. The car is a 2002 ws6 with a torque v2 cam and full bolt-on, and a 6speed bilstein shocks UMI LCAs and some ither stuff, also what would a 1/4 time be with respect to all that info?Thanks .
ps. The car is on street tires so I launched softly.

Forgot to add that a knock sensor is bad and I heard it takes away timing so I don't know if that affects my times.

You are asking about "fake" times from a GPS standpoint in the "Drag Race" forum.

You can probably expect some flak like the above posts.
