Your MPH can be off because of heat, humidity or low baromiter. Also when you have good power the track prep is important. I went to Orlando Spin World 2 nights ago and they did not prep for test and tune at all. When theres an event they prep good and I run 1.50 to 1.55 60' all day but 2 nights ago my best 60' was 1.70 which hurt my et by almost .30 sec. So if you go when they prep and theres better weather you`ll pickup et and MPH.

Be careful running low tire pressure on those tires, my car gets loose on the top end of the track if I run 13psi or less. I run my Hoosiers at 14 -16psi depending on track prep. Just saw a friend today that used to work at GM Express in S.Florida, he got out of shape going thru the traps at the Orlando SLP event last year. Luckily he walked away fine but the ZO6 was totaled.

I think you should be going faster, like 118mph, if you are full weight, your 1/8th mph shows room for improvement. I was going 93mph, 11.5, in an A4 back in 2000. I would be trying to up that 91mph to 93-94mph.
You might want to start tracking the weather and the weight of the car. If the weather like 3000 DA it's going to really affect the power.
Where are you shifting?
