Default 1/4 mile times monitored with Datamaster(File now available for download)

http://home.attbi.com/~ss39670/051702LT1_racing.zip

Went to the track this weekend and got several runs on my 93 Corvette LT1 with the results logged in Datamaster. I am still new to using Datamaster and require some help in understanding the results. There are several runs in this file. My E.T.'s are from a high of 14.2 to a best of 13.53, however I was unable to break 100 mph in any run. My previous mph best was 102 at 13.9. Here are the mod's to my car.

1. Power Effects exhaust
2. Breathless Air Filter
3. 3.54 Rear End
4. Ed Wright Chip
5. Adjustable Fuel Pressure regulator (38psi)
6. BFG Drag Radials
I am trying to understand what my engine is doing correct and wrong so I can make the appropriate adjustments and I know I should be breaking 100mph in the mid 13's. Any help interpreting this data is truly appreciated. Don't know how to post my TTS Datamaster file for review so if someone can send me an email I will forward the file for review.

Those are the times that datamaster gave you, or the track timeslips? Keep this in mind. At the track you 'stage' and then you roll anywhere from very little to 6" before you trip the timing light to begin your run. You can be going up to 5mph or so before you finish those 6" and hit the light.

Makes a huge difference compared to just starting the clock when you tires start moving. :)

These are the times from the track time slips. The Datamaster files are just monitoring my runs at the track. Do you know how I can post the file for review?

I can't get into that file after I decompress it, it has a .uni extension. Apparently I don't have the software to open .uni files.

I would like to compare it with my auto x-ray results
