New track time, kinda dissapointing!

Well I made my way to the track last night, and I'm a little disappointed with my times. I only got two runs in, so I was not able to really perfect driving/launching. The following run is with all mods in sig except for underdrives. I am also running the stock fuel system but I have an adjustable FPR set to 42 psi, and timing was at 18* BTDC. (I actually picked up 1 tenth with upping the timing from 16* to 18*)
Here's my second and best run of the night.
R/T....674
60'....2.146
330...5.788
1/8....8.816
MPH...81.11
1000..11.428
1/4.....13.632
MPH....102.24
My 60' still sucked, but wheel spin was not that bad. I think my AOD is contributing to my poor 60' times, or I'm not launching it hard enough.
Should I be running a higher fuel pressure? I ran some #'s though an analyzer and it says with the stock fuel system I should be running 51 psi, does that sound right? The analyzer also says my best run should be 13.35 at 102 mph. I'm heading back next wednesday the 17th to race again, and I'm hoping after a little more tweaking I can pull a low 13 sec time. Any help here would be much appreciated!!

On the plus side... Your time is better than what my cars can do! I would get atleast a 190lph fuel pump and 24# injectors. My friend was running a h/i/c combo with the stock fuel system, then he added those little things and it made a huge improvement. I could really feel the difference from just riding in his stang. Highly recommended! About Wed. the 17th. I want to go badly, but I might be working. Hopefully things will work out.
