BMX vs Road bike

Hi guys,

So, I'm not exactly sure how the topic was broached, but myself, and a buddy of mine ended up getting into a friendly argument yesterday over which one would win in a short sprint (eighth or quarter mile). He's adamant that he would be able to beat me on his BMX bike, however, I don't agree with that assertion.

I believe that he would pull off the line quicker due to having smaller wheels (not sure what sprocket or cassette he's running), but that it wouldn't be long before I pulled on him.

I think key would be making sure I start off in the correct gear. The only way I foresee myself losing would be user error.

BTW, we have placed a small wager of $40 on the race.

So, what does everyone else think?
