It would be nice if they had something above what's there now performance wise but under the SRT ( read something more affordable ).

Hey now, be nice. I'd race you, I'll race anything even if I know I'll get my *** handed to me. 
I was at the track this last weekend, a Stock 03L with drag slicks on did some runs, his best run was a 14.11, and he started off at a 14.6, keep in mind this is 2200 ft in the air so the times are off by at least 1/2 a second. But my point is that isn't blazingly quicker then my hemi, without his slicks it would be pretty close.
