How is your reading comprehension? Too much gasoline running in your veins?
Here Eric's post again, in case you missed it. He's referring to the same charts you are - the ones he supplied.

Despite its 4100 pound curb weight, the G8 GT pulls just 11.3 pounds for every horsepower, where your 911 lugs 15.3 lbs/hp.
In other words, he wasn't full throttle through the whole pull. Which isn't suprising given that your "3rd to 5th gear pull" would equate to 94 mph in 3rd @ 6300 shift, and pulling to your 110 mph top speed. I'm sure he gave enough to take you initially then let off, hoping not to get caught (let alone racing) at triple digit speeds.
In an official drag strip setting, you'd see nothing but taillights from a G8 GT

You need to stop worrying about winning stoplight races in a 30 year old classic car.
