first 1/4 ever first man. trans ever

all right ok so i went to check my 1/4 for the first time ever , had the car 1 month and it is my first manual transmition car ... car is completely stock ( touring ) , as was excited as hell , had my helmet on and when im next in line and all ready - they have to clean the track.... ok so i turned off my car and waited , 10 minutes later we are called to the line and guess what , it happened so fast i forgot to turn off my traction control !!!!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa i was so pissed off i did 14.7 with traction on , i felt like a moran hehe , ok so here is my best run out of 3 :

r/t : .995
60': 2.177
330: 5.946
1/8: 9.065
1000: 11.730
1/4 13.976
mph: 99.27

i go the car under 14s , but i couldnt get more speed... the best i did was 99.54... is it because my car only has 1300 miles on them ?
anyone knows anything about slick tires please let me know...

I was wondering about power loss because of the TCS. Has anybody dyno'd with TCS and then TCS off? You could subtract the figures and get a difference in rwhp loss and tq loss. SOMEBODY DO THAT, AND THAT SOMEBODY WON'T BE ME. Yeah, i'm lazy.
