Default Does this seem right?

I went to the track today to see what she runs without the nitrous, I have not got the system all in yet and wanted to get a base.
Here are my runs..
1st run I ran in over drive..
60' = 1.932
330'= 5.746
1/8= 8.902@77.75
1000'=11.633
1/4=13.969@95.95

2nd run I ran in Drive and was turning a little over 5,000 RPM's at the end..
60' = 1.943
330'= 5.769
1/8= 8.943@77.30
1000'=11.695
1/4=13.981@98.43

3rd run was about the same as the 2nd.. This just seem slow for what I have.. What do you guys think is going on.. The track was around 700' above
sea level and 60* temp. My sig gives my mods.. Not much but more coming..

Here is the info on the car..
1993 40th Ruby Red, K&N, open air, 160 thermo, tb-bypass, Corsa, C5 wheels, 3.73's and 100 shot NX kit

I'm happy with the 60' times, my friend that was there taped my 1st run and the front tires dang near came off the ground. She pulls hard off the line this was with 275-35-18 Kumho 712's. I think maybe with a higher stall I could cut the 60' time down a little more..
