Message	Elapsed times aside, your trap speeds are low. Even if you didn't launch your car hard at all and just drove it down the track at full throttle, it should still reach trap speeds of 106+ mph. The fact that you're only turning 103 mph traps tells me that your car is not putting out the power. Launching has hardly anything to do with trap speeds. I've totally botched runs where I nearly ran a 15 sec 1/4 mile, yet my trap speed is still very consistent around 107 mph.
