Challenge indeed!!!

Since Excaliber was the one to make this statement, I propose the following:

1 standard JBL with either a 302 or 351 Ford crate motor, Tremec TKO with .8 overdrive, 3.73 rear axle ratio. Hoosier DOT radials. (Standard Carrera dampers.)

1 standard BDR with either a 302 or 351 Ford crate motor, Tremec TKO with .8 overdrive, as close as possible BMW rear ratio. Hoosier DOT radials. (You are allowed the "Sport" series suspension as offered. No special dampers IE Penskes etc.)

Note: Both cars must have the same engine size, pick which one you like. Also, suspension settings must be to stock factory specs for road use.

Venue should be any proper race circuit in the US.

Now the real kicker, Both cars to be driven 15 laps of said circuit by the same driver who has no experience with either car, nor any factory affiliation.

The driver must be the one who made the challenge. (Please note: all expenses to be paid by said driver.)
