Default Warbird transition

Hello,
I’ll start this thread by saying that my end game is to fly a Warbird…easier said than done from what I’m hearing. I would only classify myself as a beginner to intermediate pilot. I’ve been flying a Carl Goldberg Eagle 2 that I build myself for about a year and a half now. I’m in a local club and started off with an instructor on a buddy box. Since then I’ve successfully soloed and become very proficient at takeoffs, landings, loops and barrel rolls. Now I’m looking to transition to my first low wing plane. What in everyone’s opinion would be a good first low wing in the .60 class to learn on for the transition to a warbird? Guys in my club have given me some suggestions but there are only 15 or so of us so I wanted to pose the question to a broader audience. Kit or ARF doesn’t matter to me and I want to stick with glow. Some suggestions have been: SIG 4-STAR 64 EG ARF, Goldberg Tiger 60 Sport and SIG Astro Hog.
Thanks for the help
