Different tires - Bridgestone Potenza's (G009 I think). No spoiler. Really wasn't sure if speedo was accurate, but, that's what it was reading or if possible downhill grade, was kinda not playing well with others in a Golf. Fortunately for me, he hit his speed limiter and diffused the situation. Definitely completely out of steam at that point.
