2005 Corvette will not start when hot. Car cranks over but will not fire.

When I drive the car for a long period of time (>1 hour) at interstate speeds in hot weather (>90) and shut it off the car will not restart until it cools off. The engine cranks but does not fire. After the car has sat for a while and cools off it starts up just fine. I have replaced the oxygen sensor, plugs and wires yet the problem still persists. I can drive around town all day long without any issues but once I try to take a long trip on the interstate the problem resurfaces.
