Richard, welcome to Texas .. it's only casually part of the US
Don't bother with the LHD ... You will be unique and you will meet more new friends that way
If it was your daily driver, yes, but for a hobby car , naaah. Just pay attention around you.
The saying here is the nut behind the wheel is more culpable than the nut on the wheel ...
Looking forward to meeting you in March when we all gather in San Marcos for our annual rally!
Adios
Sam
