Default New best in the eighth, good for a stock 98?

Went to the track today and shocked the **** out of myself, this is the third time I have been out there with the car and the only mods I have done since I got it are a lid, drop-in filter, and lca's and a phb. Any way I had a best of 8.4839 @ 87.31 mph with a 2.0061~60ft, and a couple of 8.5's but was really consistent at 8.6 with a 2.1~60ft. Car is an A4 and has 130xxx miles on it and I think I am going to get lt's and true duals then trek out to the quarter and run 12's

The only quarter mile that i know of in the state I am stationed is darlington, which is at least two hours from my base and this track only takes 25 minutes to get to and was recently resurfaced.

Really? The car if really consistent with that mph, I just didn't think it was good for 12's just yet. Oh well I just ordered my lt's today so it should definitely be able to hit 12's next week!
