Default I think something is wrong with my motor, not sure...

Well, I went to a strip a while back with two friends. One in a 94 lude with a f22, the other in a 95 civic sedan with a d16. I have the b16 sedan. I cam in at like 15.76 on average I suppose. I didn't bother to pick up my slip you had to get them at like a stand near the rear entrance/exit.

Anyway, the D16 kept up with me like 1/2 way, and the f22 pretty much romped me. My question is, how the hell did that happen? Like two months ago I beat both at the same place. Could my IAT sensor CEL cause me to run really rich? Also my throttle cable isn't tentioned on the bracket because it doesn't fit. I just don't get it. I'm not worried about the whole getting beat, I'm worried about my motor. All the fluids are good, no odd noises, no smoke what-so-ever. I know the b16's far from the quickest motor, but an f23 single cam destroyed me. I'm guessing the d16 was just a shitty launch on my part. I dunno, I'm rambling because I'm nervous. I guess it's one of them "can't do things you used to be able to" situations.
