First time at Track

So, yesterday was my first time taking my car to the track. Awesome experiences expect for the fact the check engine light came on after about the 3rd run. Took it to autozone and they said I had a random misfire

I'm spending some time on it later today. Anyway it was a 1/8 track, car ran a 9.9. I'll try to take some pictures of my slips later on. Anyone know what a "good" time is for our car on a 1/8?

FYI, a 9.9 1/8 ET equates to a 15.3-15.4 1/4 mile ET.
