yeah i'm sure you would have a better handle on where such numbers fit in the world than i do, but they are great numbers and from where i am they look pretty pro.
speaking of where i am, time for an update.
i must say, after racing alot, training with a coach etc. progress seems to be slowing. i may be getting close to maxing out my talent. it was cooler when i was beginner. the gainz were bigger!
i'd post graphs and stuff but imgur is down. so i'll just post where is started from and where i am now. i really came back to cycling in jan 2015, but back surgery in june of 2015 pretty much put me out for a month and then the slow grind back into it. started racing in april of 2016 and i really like it.

i feel like i might make the biggest improvements over the next year in my sprint (5s). things have been going well there since i broke 1,000 watts recently (don't laugh).
i really want to have an ftp which is around 350W, but i sometimes wonder if i want too much. losing 10 kg would also be good but beyond a certain point losing weight cycling isn't easy. especially if you don't want to lay off the cycling for a while i think.
one thing i do find is that i can exert my 30 sec effort or 1 min, and recover pretty good (still feels like shit though). based on my reading, repeatability is a key race metric that these "best of" power numbers fail to capture.
one thing with repeatability though is that you have to choose to, or be forced to, put yourself in the red, to make the use of that repeatability. i sometimes need to convince myself to do it (although sometimes natural euphoria just takes me there, usually at an entirely non-strategic time).
