From the NHRA website:
W/L Driver RT ET Speed
(W) Ken Scheepers ('05 RX8) 0.060 7.596 179.71
(L) Dee Karagiannis ('07Mazda) 0.106 11.401 110.33
Ken wins again, he won two weeks ago in Florida too. He didn't run quick enough to back up a record, but it's quite an achievement for the independent team from Texas.

This is from ken webpage and this is what he says:
As you can see, an improvement in the 60' to a 1.10 or 1.09 will improve the overall time. I think if you look at the 330' and the 1/8th mile time, I believe you will agree that we now have what it takes to be competitive, especially considering I don't have the boost turned up plus we were on old tires and no bead locks. No Semi-Peripheral Port, just a simple Kilo Racing Bridge Port and a killer Garrett turbocharger.

After reading the above I finally have the complete code broken and it translate into the following.
No tomato ketchup, mustard or A-1 special sauce. It's just a combination of plain old Texan guacamole, sour cream and a touch of pico de gallo all from the land of Walt Disney created by your lordship, professor Mickey!

Well at least your're man enough to admit that you were mistaken.
You should also feel a lot better that you got your release even though you did not get to enjoy it for a long time.
