Drag racing often includes match ups between very fast and powerful vehicles and the latest video from YouTube channel Drag Racing And Car Stuff is no exception to this rule. In a video capturing three races on the 1/4 mile strip all after dark, a red Chevrolet Corvette takes on a Jaguar F-Type, a McLaren and a Tesla Model 3.

While the races are competitive in each round, with the Jaguar, McLaren and Tesla each delivering different levels of speed against the Chevy sports car, it's clear that these are the C8's races to win this round. Check out the video to see the C8 take on its three challengers from three very different automakers.

C8 Chevy Corvette VS Jaguar F-Type Drag Race

In the first race, the red C8 Corvette takes on a white Jaguar F-Type. With each car being the representative fast, sporty car from each of their respective brands, it's a true battle of American vs European speed. The race starts as each coupe approaches the starting line with revving engines as they line up and reach the starting off point. The Corvette initially takes off faster than the Jaguar does and maintains its lead throughout the race. While the Jaguar does gain some ground, it never manages to significantly narrow the gap that the C8 puts in front of it.

The end result of the race has the Chevrolet taking the win with the Corvette's time of 11.44 seconds and a 120 mph top speed against the F-Type's 11.96 second finish time and 118 mph top speed. It's a close race on paper but less so when watching the video. The Corvette C8 moves with a brawny V8 powertrain while the F-Type has gotten offered with several different engine types throughout its life cycle, and it's not revealed which powertrain is underneath the hood of the white Jaguar coupe in this race.

Next, the C8 Corvette takes on a McLaren supercar. In a race between the Chevrolet sports car and British supercar, it's anyone's race to win from the starting point. Off the line, the C8 takes the lead over the McLaren, but doesn't hold a sizable distance advantage for long as the McLaren quickly narrows the gap and manages to get very close to overtaking the Corvette near the finish of the drag strip.

Even so, ultimately, the Corvette's strong start gives it enough of a propulsion to keep its lead and narrowly beat the McLaren to the finish with a finish time of 11.73 seconds and a 128 mph top speed against the McLaren's 11.73 second top speed and 130 mph top speed; in what turns out to easily be the closest race of the video.

In the third and final race, the Corvette goes up against a Tesla Model 3. The gasoline powered Corvette and all-electric Model 3 often compete against each other at the strip and the results are often mixed on which is the faster of the two to the end of the 1/4 mile.

In this race, it's the Corvette's race to win and the red sports car takes an immediate lead over the Tesla once leaving the starting line and holds the lead through the remainder of the race. While the Tesla does gain some ground, it isn't enough to make up for the C8's initial advantage and the Corvette wins with an 11.35 second finish time and 120 mph top speed against the EV's 11.63 second finish time and 115 mph top speed.
