Default 1/8th mile drags ??

I just got back from the 1/8th mile drags and was just wondering about what it would be in the 1/4 mile

my time slip says:

60ft....2.380
mph... 77.99
et......9.517

this is with shitty street tires and stock suspention... any way i took down a new WRX Sti by about 2 cars and a GT mustang

it really depends on ur turbo size and top end, traction is always an issue. ive seen crappy *** 1/8th mile times like 9.5 then they pull a 13... jus take it to a quarter to be sure... i was hittin 9.0's in my teg with a itty bitty turbo... u have traction issues for sure
