To be honest after my last visit to Milan Dragway this year, i have serious doubts about their timing equipment...specifically the mph!
I'm suspiscious as well. 13.9@111 is a hellva strange time. That would lead to you conclude that the car spun like mad off the line, but the video showed that wasn't the case.
