Post My First Time Racing (long)

Well went to T&T today and had a good time there but my track time wasn't so hot.
i got there at 8:15 and was 2nd in line and then some guys in truck come behind me and we bs'd a bit, then a few of his friends came and he went to talk to them, then about 6-7 vette's came in together!!

finally get inside and all checked in and ready to go and i get lined up with a 94-95 gt well i stayed away from the water box and just did a few dry hops to see how it felt and then moved to the line and staged and held rev at 1500 and sliped clutch out till moving and them hammered it and overrevd first but after that was ok on 2-3 and 3-4 shifts, here's the confusing part my times 60': 2.159 330'- 6.62 660' 10.061@71.5mph 1000' 12.988 1320 15.377@94.52

i have autometer 5" tach with shift lite set at 5300 and traction was good as evident by 60'times on stock radials, but why don't my time look as good as mph shows?? my best run was 15.12 and the difference from slowest to fastest was 1.5 mph . i am new to driving a stick so maybe that could be it?? any opinions are appreciated
