That's known as the "MB party trick".  Harrass something like a Z300 or an M3,  
drop back at the next roundabout, and go through like it wasn't there.  You can 
come up behind them 30+ mph faster and flick past like they're standing still.

Tell Martin tomorrow that you do this too.  He'll pay attention to the 
alignment.
