3 , Four barrel or F.I. ,, low hp rated , middle to low class car..When you find it, let us know!
Distant 4th place, Low class 2 bbl car ..
I know, Billy made it seem easy, but you don't think he revealed 90 % of the tricks he used on that GP, do you?
Only good thing here is you get plenty of hands on experience, as opposed to writing checks.

1, FWD, fine starter car, the right car will usually run the index by cutting off the exhaust and putting the shortest tire on it that you can find. Downside, later models with PFI and DIS can be a pain to get to work, early carb and distributor cars getting too old and hard to find.
2, Turbo, great cars(Joe lives in an altitude challenged area), really need a running car though. Downside, Joe is finding that out and he hasn't gotten to the track yet.
3, Four barrel or F.I., probably easiest to find but to stay "Dime-able" it would have to be really heavy. Downside, REALLY HEAVY.
4, Low classed 2V car, plentiful, cheap, V8s not a bad thing, easy to work on, won't hurt themselves. Downside, Mark, I'm not that smart.
