Traffic Ticket - Would I Hold Up In Court?

Well, I knew this was going to come one day, but wish I was more careful. It was a red light, and I gunned it once it turned green. The speed limit was 40, once I hit 50, I putted it on neutral since there was a red light coming, and that's usually the fastest I will go on that road.

Lucky for me, the cop was behind me since the red light . She pulled me over, telling me she had to accelerated to 60 to catch me. Pretty sure that's because I gunned way before she did. So instead of speeding, she wrote me a "failure to obey signs" to give me a break. Even tho I didn't disobey and signs. Which is still $100 and 3 points.

I planned to go to court, but should I plead not guilty and just explain the whole story and tune down the speed I was going?

Because she wrote me a ticket that I didn't do, would that give me a better chance to get out of it? I hope so.... :(
