Default youth or experience?

Hey everybody, nothing real exciting here but I have an interesting scenario/bet going on with my son (teen ti). For the first time my son and I will competing in the same autocross class, my son in his '02 325ci and myself (ironically) in my son's '99 318ti, both running in the street prepped class. For some extra info the 325ci has a 5spd and is completely stock other than a set of 18in ASA AR9 wheels with some very low profile tires, and the 318ti is a sport model with a 5spd, a cold air intake, storming exhaust and a set of 17in Kosei K1's. My son claims that he will beat me no problem with the 325ci, typical kid. However, unlike my son where I may lack in youth I have been doing autocrosses for the better part of 20 years and have attended numerous driving schools. My son has competed in about 4 autocross competitions, 2 driving schools and one road rally. My question for all of you is who do you think is going to prove to be more successful? And in case anyone is wondering, the bet is a months worth of gas, loser pays.
