frame advice

I looking for some advice about a frame purchase. I want to race on the street, on the local speedway (.33 mile oval, barely banked, torn up asphalt car track) and occassionally at t-town.
Im pretty set on a steel frame, maybe a kerin since I can probably get one local, and I love the look and feel of old school lugged italian whatevers. I have a vague interest in the Bareknuckle b/c of the minimalist look, which looks tight, stiff and fast? Do you think a lugged steel of columbus type tubing will fly? What about the bareknuckle? I know aluminum is probably the best for the track racing but I just don't think I want one on the road. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
