Default First time results in the 1/8th

Back from my first trip to the track and here are the results. I have no idea what times/mph are good for the 1/8th. Got 4 runs in w/ only 3 decent times. What do you guys think? Is this average for my mods or should I be faster? I know my 60' can come down. This was on yoko street tires plus that best time was w/ me bogging a little through the 60.
8.565 @ 89.019 mph w/ a 2.181 60'
Best 60' was a 2.17x but then I missed 2nd
One more thing, what does this equate to in the 1/4?

I think I answered my own question about the 1/4. I looked at the database and based off my mph I should be mid 12's in the 1/4 and low 8's in the 1/8th on street tires. Time to work on that 60'!!

Mph is good but your ET could be better... I think traction is your problem... tires
I think 8.50's is a 13 sec pass in the 1/4 maybe 12.9 "8.30's is going to close to a high 12.
Work on your 60's and try shifting at different rpm's to see if you can drop ET... someone with an m6 will be able to guide you.
Your mph will come down a little once you lower your ET
