First night at the track after the headers. Times inside

Well tonight was my first night at the 1/8 mile track after I have put on my headers. Need some help with the numbers. look in sig for mods.

Best Run:
Reaction:.716(does that suck or is that decent for a newbie)

60': 2.099(does that sound right?)

1/8 mile ET: 8.865

MPH:81.758
Remeber this is with an A4 and 2.73 gears. What would 3.42's do for me? est. times would be nice.

3 questions

1. Was it a .500 tree or a .000 tree?

2. Street tires or DR's?

3. What year car is it?
