Don,
To answer your question go LHD. I have no other reason other than why put yourself into a performance car you will drive occasionally and not feel completely comfortable straight away.
On another thread you were looking for cars (I think). I saw this ad, you may have as well, and believe this to be a car that I have seen several times. It is an awesome machine and might be worth your while to investigate further. If you need more info feel free to PM or email me and I might be able to connect you with a previous owner.
