Default Sad first trip to the track

Like the title says, I didn't have a good first trip to the track with my 2012 Nismo.

My best time was 14.56 @99.9 with a dismal 60 foot of 2.58. Launched at 2,500 RPM.

Blew the tires off on the 2nd run. Launched at 6,000 RPM

I made a better 60 foot of 2.28 on the 3rd run but let off the clutch to fast and grinded second gear. resulting in a 14.63 @97.1. Launched at 3,500 RPM

Running cat back GReady exhaust, K&N intake, aftermarket flywheel (not sure brand or type) and Ohtsu 285/35Z R19 FP8000 on the stock Rays.

Track temp was 90 degrees with 70% humidity, at sea level. (No problem raceway in South Louisiana)

Even with a bad 60 foot I would have though I could get under a 14 second 1/4 mile. What are everyone's thoughts?
