Couldn't agree more with kayce's advice.
Maintenance and practice are of paramount importance.
Look after it like your life depends on it and practice your ass off.
Consistency is your goal and don't worry about speed,that will come with consistency.
Bunging in a big grunty motor from the off will cost you big time,and boost your parts supplier's takings no end.
Here's a final thought for you:
BITD,I raced an Optima Mid Custom at club level consistently in the top
classes for two years.
The beautiful thing never broke or let me down once in those two years
not because I was particularly fast,but because I was consistant and kept the car and equipment very well maintained.
Above all though,enjoy your racing and drive your "own" race.
