Default New to MF from Chicago

Hey there,

I just secured my first real job, the one with a retirement plan, benefits, and a real paycheck so I've decided to get a 2012 Mustang GT. It will have to be ordered as follows with just one undecided factor:

2012 Black Mustang GT Base
6 speed
Brembo package
and the issue is 3.55 or 3.73

I want to track the car and eventually do some 1/4's. I plan to keep it stock until the warranty runs out. Any advice on what gear to get for tracking would be much appreciate or where to post a question like this would be helpful too.

Thanks,

BBB

Thanks for the advice, wasn't sure if 3.73 gears would cause issues on track days (i.e. running out of them).
