Very good numbers.
We only have 1/8 mile track here
and I could not pull this 1/8th number with a SC C5.

Congrats! Great time!
My 08 is almost stock, except performancewise for the addition of the Mopar Controller and Belanger headers with H/F cats.
I see that numbers from my best run are pretty similar to yours up to the 1/8 mile, but the extra power from the mods take over after that.
Here's what I got :
60 foot : 1.828
330 foot: 5.019
1/8 ET : 7.547
1/8 mph : 96.38
1000 foot: 9.687
1/4 ET : 11.455
1/4 mph : 128.29 (third gear)

Great run. Reaction time has no effect on your 1/4 time so a better light won't change your time, but will help you win races!

Bingo! Slow reactions do not affect time.

Back in 06 when the Jeep SRT8 came out, Car&Driver got a best of 13.4 at 104 mph
I got an early 06 and drag raced quite a bit "All Stock" that year.
My first heatsoaked run with 3/4 tank got me a 13.74 but a few months later with good temp and prep I got a best of 13.02 at 107 wich stood as the stock record for a few years. Since then, a few guys have touched the 12's but always in cold negative D.A.
Here are a few pointers to get a good run with a stock Jeep:
-Less than 1/4 tank of 93 oct gas
-Pull out #4 ABS Pump Fuse (Pink)wich removes traction control completly.
-Remove carpets and all your personnal stuff inside the cabin.
-Empty windshield washer fluid
-Move passenger seat all the way back
-Tires at 40 psi front and 33 psi rear
-Let engine cool down between runs, 185* max coolant temp.
-Fold outside mirrors, AC and radio off.
-No burnout but only a quick dry hop in the staging lines.
-Stage shallow,stop when the second yellow light comes on.
-Trans in Autostick 1st gear, dont shift it will do it by itself.
-Bring revs to 1200-1500 rpm
-Launch on the last yellow.
Goog luck and have a good time, Jeeps are fun and easy to drag race, dont spill your coffea down the track !
Here's a video of a 13.04 run, trying desperatly to get a 12's

and a year later with headers and a few bolt-ons down to 12.16
