Considering its a 5.3 vs newer 5.7+some, and they are known for running high 13's stock, i'd say its not very impressive..

Who knows what the conditions were, traction etc with only one pass. You would think it would have ran quicker but maybe this year has a bunch of tq management added or somethin..
