One of my favorite past times. The others are in my sig.

You said that was your first time at the track. Seat time, proper launch techniques, and shifting at the right times will go a long way to lowering your 1/4 mile times. There is nothing wrong with your car. You trapped at 104mph. On a good day my stock 87 will do 13.8 @ 99mph. So it appears...

I tried shifting manually a number of times. I always got better ETs by letting the car shift.

I don't know if you are close to this track, but they have a Corvette Challenge race this Sat. Check this out => http://forums.corvetteforum.com/showthread.php?t=1665992 Don't let the 5th race scare you off. Anybody with a Vette can run any time.

DRTH VTR's advice is probably better for you, as your car is closer in HP to his than mine is to yours. The only things I can add is ASR off, put the trans in Drive (not Over Drive). If you're on street tires drive around the water box and spin the tires just enough to get any stones or other...
