Best run yet!

Tonight I went to the track. The temp was around 52 degrees. I spun the tires about 15 ft to clean them off. My reaction time was .529, 60' 2.101, and my quarter mile was 13.679 at 101.15 mph. My very best time before this was back in the summer in 70-80 degree weather and I ran a 14.1. Was it the cold weather that helped my time so much or do you think the timer was off at the track? My previous 60' and reactions time are all about the same. I am just wandering if it possible to run 5 seconds faster in the quarter but the reaction time and 60' stay the same as the slower time? Also my truck is bone stock except for the mods in my sig.

Also when I got there I had to wait like 20 mins because the timer had to be reset, and the date and time on the slip was wrong. Do you think that the timer was still off and gave me a false time. I just wanted to be sure before I get to excited.
