Re: a couple of really noobie questions

it's a 1/4 mile, or 1320ft.

Best ET is usually, your best ET (elapsed time).

GTO or Mustang GT? Both are nice cars, it's personal preference. The GTO is quicker out of the box, being that it's got 100hp more stock. But it's no longer in production, but if you're lucky you can still find a few on the lots because they didn't sell very well.

The Mustang is a decent car overall. It's a good starting base for somebody looking to do some hotrodding.

Overall, it's up to personal preference.

Much easier to change the name than to change cars if you don't like the first one.
