Default what do you think about this 1/8th e.t.?

i tried uploadin the pix of the timeslip but couldn't so i typed them out:
left ....................................right
t734(old chevy truck) ........ 8494 (my car 92 lude Si)
r/t .... .629 ........ 1.401
60'.... 2.062 ........ 2.404
330... 5.795 ........ 6.419
1/8th. 8.908 ........ 9.623
mph.. 78.39 ......... 77.32
(mods at the time where a custom cold air intake. magnaflo exhuast. bypassed cold start valve. 60 shot of nos. lowered front tire psi to 22. raised rear psi to 40. tires are nitto nt-450 205-55-15. chrome stock rims.)

are these times o.k. or can i do better? and what is the deal with the trap speed? why is it that we are only 1mph apart? how can i improve my 60' times? and I launched at around 3500 to 4000 rpm. so wat do u guys think. any input would be usefull because im new at this and i really want to improve these numbers. thanx in advance.

You can definitely do better, but that's not bad. I'm assuming your first time out? Practice practice practice! And if you're mostly concerned with going fast in a straight line for now, invest in some slicks! Best bang for your buck to lower your E.T's.

Pretty good time
but you should try leaving at the third yellow
light and you will have much better reaction times
usually consistant .500 to .700

but heck i seem to get worse 60ft times when i get good reaction times

reaction times have nothing to do with your e.t.
