Default 1998 Formula times good/bad??

0.5378 Reaction(Not that it matters it was test&tune)
2.1686 60
5.8861 330
8.9372 1/8
81.92 MPH
13.6149 1/4
104.25 1/4 MPH

1998 Formula A4 60,000 miles

Paper airfilter, Full tank of gas, Full PSI in tires(phantom zrx's), a bunch of tools in the car.

This was at Temple Academy dragway on a decently humid day.

I know my 60' suck for a A4 this was my first time at the track with the car.

I had other runs with worse 60's the worst being a 2.2 I trapped between 104-106.5

I went to the track on short notice if I had planned on going I would have had less gas and spare tire out and probbley lowered the PSI in rear tires.

So is this a good time?
