The 580hp ZL1 was released in 2012. The 664hp GT500 was released in 2013 in response to the ZL1. The XXXhp Hellcat released in 2015 in response to both.

Many people that YOU know may be limiting themselves to drag strips, but many people I know are avid track/autocross drivers. These cars are not limited to drag strips as they once were. They are much more than that now. At least the Chevy and Ford offerings anyway.
