Your sig only shows an IS350 - do you also have a GS350 or was it a loaner car?
With that kind of low mileage I cringe to think of the excess wear possibly encountered by the motor being run that hard so early in its life. But if it was a loaner car then I suppose maybe you don't care...
For what it's worth my 99 GS400 in stock form with all season tires and 16" wheels only managed a 14.7 @ 97 and I don't think I am an unskilled drag racer because I managed a 15.1 @ 93 with my 06 Audi A4 which is among/the best time I've seen anyone get with my motor/configuration of A4 on the Audi forums.

When you race an auto tranny car, you don't really need a lot of skill at all. I think most of the time it's just luck. When you drive an auto, you just stomp on the gas and go lol. The GS350 is a little bit easier to launch than the IS350 because it has less wheel spin due to the longer gear. Anyhow, I just ran my stock IS350 last night and did a 13.6 in it, here's the thread https://www.clublexus.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=247842

wow... that is impressive.... especially with a 2.2 60'. with better track prep that car will do 13.70's easily.....
I'm renting Moroso next month, we'll have about 15 cars or so, let me know if your interested.....
