I would think if they knew how to drive them they would get into the 13s... but most don't have a clue. Also the best times you see listed most of the times are professional drivers. But I bet theres ones that are just slower for whatever reason from the factory while others are quicker. I've seen 5.7 challengers run 13.1s stock, but alot run high 13s to 14s. But there's always the factory freaks.

2002 Z28 A4 NBM- Sadly now demodded :(
Saturday was Club Day at Speed World here in PHX. We had 1 guy in a Vortech supercharged 5th gen. It would only spin in 1st, 2nd and 3rd. He did a mid-13 ET but had a 125 mph trap speed.
Now if only he could get it to hook up...

Phantom Black Metallic- 2004 GTO M6
Reminds me of when I read an old Motor Trend article with a showdown between a supercharged SRT8 Challenger, Mustang GT500 SuperSnake and a Hennessy HPE 650 maro. Maro won even though it was slower than the SuperSnake as the SuperSnake had shoddy tires and the car sent the rears into smoke.

I don't either. I think the company is called Speedworks. The Motor Trend staff was disappointed with the company and the car. Supposedly, there was supposed to be a bigger hemi under the hood but due to time constraints, the car wasn't ready. So they sent a supercharged SRT8 instead. Placed dead last.

I didn't read the entire cover as I was in the office for my pre-employment drug screening.
