There are a lot of errors in marketing and cars are tested in perfect conditions. I love Chevy but to defend Ford I can also say that the ZL1 was marketed as an 11 second car 1/4 mile car. That was GM's claim and perhaps just like Ford's 200MPH run, it was a hero run because I don't see stock ZL1's doing 11's in the 1/4. I know my ZL1 does not feel like the GT500, which has proven itself as an 11 second car.
