Is it hitting the rev limiter too soon??

Well I took the car out to the track for the first time this year and netted a 14.2@98mph which is not bad at all considering the track is 2200' above sea level.

The problem is that I hit the limiter in 3rd gear before I finsh the 1/4 mile. So I looked back to the dyno sheets of my car and it was hitting the limiter at about 5500 rpms.

So my question is what mph would the limiter kick in at, if i was at 5800 rpms?? I do have the stock gears.
