Although not perfect, the Corvette has proven to be MY favorite car time and time again and I don't need to get into a dick measuring contest to prove it. But as we get close to Sebring, I started thinking about the fight between Porsche and Corvette and how all that racing technology transfers to street cars.

After the couple years or so of watching aftermarket tuners like 9ff and Switzer Performance crank out ridiculous horsepower from the 911 Turbo and having to deal with the constantly referenced Nissan GT-R topping their performance benchmarks for half the cost, Porsche has finally decided to do something about it.
