But he just keeps on pushing me real close, so I muttered to myself, what the heck! Switched the car into sport mode and floored it, starting from Adventist hospital. I can tell the dude tried to keep up in the back, driving fairly aggressively. The F06 didn't fail me at any turn and I didn't even slow down at the turns. Pretty soon, the headlights from the CLS were at quite a distance.

And then, there was a taxi in front of me, that I had to slow down CLS kid caught up and pushed me again. So well... Dangerous manuever but I have confidence in my F06 I passed the taxi in front at a very short broken white line section (I think right after white jade) right before a right turn which followed by an immediate left bend. CLS tried to follow but I guess he finally chickened out. The CLS can't handle like the F06. I know because I test drove it.

And by the time I got to good old Police Museum Junction, the I can't see the lights from the CLS anymore

And during all these, on Dunlop SportMax DSST, DSC light has not come on once That's handling of the Gran Coupe
A Audi TT (rs or tts) came from behind, I could tell he wanted to overtake me on a brief allowable stretch, he was coming from a distance, but I could already feel him waiting for his turbos to engage, so i jammed the pedal in normal mode, car barely warmed up, got up to 5.5k rpm in no time, just enough to head him off to prevent him cutting in my lane, but ofcourse no where near enough power to keep up with him,and bendy flyover, i don't want to fly off -the car has NO handling .. but at least i managed to play to the car's strengths.
