I run high 13's at 102-103 at Reynolds pretty consistently, so there you should be able to improve pretty dramatically.
Try the 2,500 rpm launch, shift fast, and don't grind.
BTW, never go to the strip with a full tank of gas, its like having a small passenger.
Try it with 1/8th of a tank next time.
I have also found that the Citgo near the track, runs pretty good. I am **** though, and tend to add a couple of gallons of BP 93 to every 10 gallons of Citgo, to get the best results. Don't ask me why, but the mixture makes my car run its best.
BP tends to lose a bit of the torque by itself, and the Citgo tends to KR a little bit, especially up top. With the mix ratio I quoted, the car runs like a rocket was lit behind it.
Give it a try, once you are near empty, and see what you think.

Def. was thinking about the full tank (though I thought I would have burned alot of it on the way down but I guess it is a good thing our car does really well on the highway LOL). I am also 235 lbs, so when I weighed my car with me inside it weighed 3445. So that also could have really affected my times.
Also I love Chevron, my first choice gas station
