Shave 3 and I was actually able to have a nice one with no rush or hollerin' sleepy wives lol!
I listened to your, "maybe not" Jason and kept the blade in there. I remembered that the Personna Lab hits its sweet spot on shave 3, anyway. So I had to give it another go at least. But I changed up my soap. I went with the Stallion in the new Taloe formula.
Fantastic! Not a single hint of dragging, not a single hint of irritation, and a super speedy, flyin' round my face shave! It really was. I took the first several strokes at a normal, comfortable pace looking for that drag I'd felt before. Didn't happen. Kept going, getting more confident. Still going great. Worked up to full speed and it as awesome! So I'm glad to report that I don't think its anything to do with the razor, but a factor of the soap or could still be the blade. Moral of the story: experiment with different variables before making a final judgment.
Splashed on a healthy dose of Stallion AS too. I'm on my way to a preschool field trip to the grocery store! Woot! It's me and a bunch of young moms. We're riding with one of them I know pretty well since I don't drive. I certainly don't mind that
I think I've "over dressed" though with the Stallion lol. Its a little strong, hopefully they don't think I'm trying t impress "the Laaadays" 
So based on this shave, I can say with confidence that this BS razor is anything but. I honestly think its just as effective as the Stealth. The stealth, like Bruce said, has a bit more mild feel and comfort (you notice the blade on the BS) but its pretty minimal. The sleeker head and maneuverability of the BS does beat the Stealth though. This is going to be a hard call which will be #1!
