Is this something I need to worry about, is being out of spec a serious issue with the engine timing?

For racing i'd rather bring it back into the good range and wonder what needs fixing in order to bring it back in line.

Any Ideas, suggestions?
Mine are almost exactly the same as yours. My 6.x deviation will go down to about 5.5 as the car warms up. 6 is supposedly the wear limit, but I have no drivability problems so I am just going to live with it.
