Default what 1/4 mile time should I aim for?

hey guys im heading to the track tomorrow night and was wondering what times i should expect to run. The track is in phoenix at 1200 ft and it should be around 70 degrees. I consider myself a pretty good driver with a lot of runs at the track.

Aim for 0.001 sec but I'll take a stab and say low13's? Hell, I shouldn't even be guessing...
