Default Got 1/4 times, don't seem right.

I would have thought that my car would have run faster than this. I don't think the tranny is doing well, as my 2-3 shifts don't occur until about 6000RPM (no matter how early or late I shift), that and my factory stall is killing me, it loads out at 1700RPM... I was doing some nice burns though... They had an Import vs. Domestic race yesterday at the Raceway.. Even with my crappy times, I am proud to say that the ONLY car I lost to was a Blown 5.0 with slicks running 13.0..

Here's what I beat:

Acura Integra TypeR (think he was blown, saw A-Pillar Gauges and heard whine)

Honda Civic, for sure turbo, heard the waste gates.

Various other Hondas and Acuras

Now the funny part is, my car is kinda loud, but... not once during my 7 runs did my friends hear me.. All they heard were the rice burners with their 5inch exhaust.

Anyways, here's my best slip.

R/T -- .901
60' -- 2.114
330' -- 6.171
1/8 -- 9.503 @ 74.11
1000' -- 12.379
1/4 -- 14.813 @ 92.57

After this, I avg'd out to exactly 15.0 @ 91.1 everytime. (my car got real consistant run after run).

Also, I swear I can hear pinging coming from my driver side pipe.. I can't get it to show up on anything though, and it only makes the noise when the engine is understrain, so I can't get under it to listen in park.

Maybe when I go tomorrow to have it dyno'd they'll check the A/F for me and see what's going on. I know my ECU complains about my #2 HO2S on the driver side, it may be out. Anyways, I am not too happy with my car right now, as I ran a 15.1 @ 91 bone stock. After all the stuff I have added, it still isn't any better? Any ideas?-- real ones, not insults please... Thanks for anyhelp.
