Is this what I should be running??
 
Well, this was the best I could manage at the track the other night. It was my very first time going and I had a blast but I was a little dissapointed with my times. Is this what I should be running? I was hoping for like 13.8s. (on street tires)

.2069 reaction
2.1761 60'

97.60 1/4 mph

Any idea of the weather conditions? DA specifically?

Without knowing anything about the environment at that track it looks like you need some drag radials to get your sixty foot time down... I see 13's very easily with some traction but what concerns me more is the low mph.... Back when I had similiar mods I was hitting 100-101 consistently but that was with a good sixty foot time and decent air. Something as simple as a clogged air filter can drop your mph like that, or a clogged fuel filter, or low octane gas. Try a basic tune up and use some premium.

Was at milan (dragway milan, michigan) weather was high 40's, just did a tune up- msd wires, ngk plugs and I was running premium gas. My first run was a 14.301 at 99.81 with a 2.18 60'

Thats not too bad for your first time. I'll bet with the same setup and a 2.0 or better 60' you will get a 13.9

i agree with the low MPH's.. mine with just intake, TB bypass and slp shorty's was trapping 101's and that was with my 2.6 60' and a 14.3 run..

but overall not tooo bad times...
