Welcome racing fans to the Arizona Motorsports Park. Today, we will be treated to a track battle between a trio of the most notable naturally aspirated sports cars ever produced. The showstopper (of course) is the newly redesigned C8 Chevrolet Corvette Z06. What has been called America’s greatest sports car will be compared with a 2009 Ferrari 458 prior to a heads-up battle with a Porsche GT3. Are you ready for this?

As for Chevy’s latest, there’s no electric assistance, no supercharger, no hybrid help and no turbos either. However, there is an entirely new engine, the LT6 5.5-liter dry sump, flat-plane crank V8 taken from the C8R GTLM race car. The new V8 is good for 670bhp and 459 lb.- ft. of torque. The C8 Z06 can accelerate from 0–60 mph in 2.7-seconds. Frankly, it sounds more Italian than American.

The rowdy red German comes equipped with a 4.0-liter flat six-cylinder motor that can generate 502hp and 346 lb.-ft. of torque. The GT3 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.0-seconds and it weighs just 3,164-pounds. The Porsche has a 6-speed manual gear box. Sound like fun?

I can’t wait any longer to get these two horses on the track and let them run. Giddy-up!
