Hey, if I was to say "It was a long drive" would I use the imperfect?
Era un paseo largo. I would think so because it never stops beings long, it's a description. Right?

Perfect or imperfect. Both are correct. It depends on the context.
Todos los días iba a casa de mi abuela. Era un paseo largo.
Ayer fui a la playa. Fue un paseo largo.

"t was a long drive (300 yards if it was an inch)"
Definitely not imperfect even if the ball was lost in the trees. So: "Fué un golpe largo."
