No excuses, right ? 
And if you can't pull better than a 1.95 60ft, your traps don't count
I love when people estimate what they THINK they would run with traction, going by there trap. Well.... If you get traction, you lose trap, so its not a very scientific way to calulate it. I've seen cars trap 100mph and run 12.8, and I've seen cars trap 104mph and run 14.6 ( me at Orlando spin-world ).
Good luck at the track, hope you fair better axle-wise then I've seen some of the SS/redline cars do. Why don't you guys ever run slicks ? Slicks are more reliable on a SRT4 than street tires ( gets rid of wheel hop issues ). A set of M&H 23.5'' tall slicks would do wonders for you guys.

14.1-14.5 @2991lbs with only 200hp at the crank bone stock!??? I'm with the minority on this one...I don't see a 3,000lb car going 14.1-14.5 in the 1/4 bone stock! I can see DUYBOY going maybe a low 14 with his mods. I hate to be a bench racer so I guess we'll just have to wait and see what he does!

Then every guy with a S/C'd ecotec woke up from that dream....
Now.. Maybe a stock cobalt at the same track as the 11.7 Z06 and the 13.0 EVO In which, a stock SRT4 would be in the high 12s at that magical track
Not haten, but mid-low 14s is just slightly optimstic for a TRUELY BONE STOCK SS/redline.
