Neither would win. Its a well known method of making a zero gravity machine.

 

All you need is a cat, something it can fall off, a piece of buttered toast and an elastic band.

 

Attach the toast to the cats back with the rubber band & push the cat off a height. The cat will try & roll over as it falls & the toast will try to land butter side down.

 

The net result is neither wins & the cat & tast spin in mid air.

 

Its true. I tried it.

The propensity for buttered toast to fall buttered side down has been scientifically investigated by Robert Matthews of Aston University.

His paper on the subject, titled "Tumbling toast, Murphy's Law and the Fundamental Constants" can be found in the European Journal of Physics, vol 16, no 4, July 18 1995, pp 172-6.

He went on to carry out an empirical study as well but as far as I know no one has yet published theoretical or practical studies of the next step using slices strapped to cats.
