After about 60 tries, I finally got through 59th Street.  After the
first 30 tries, I was livid & put the game back in its case & away
never wanting to play this fucking game again.  Went off, watched
part of a movie (Core, that shit movie), then watched a few youtube
videos on 59th street.  One showed a guy failing over & over for
10 minutes. The other showed how it was done, although there
wasn't really any secret.
 
So now knowing that I had to drive through a store to get through
the game, I thought knowledge is power & I can get through it.
Loaded up the game & went through it another 30 fucking tries!
Goddammit, I was yelling at the TV as loud as I could get total
& utter profanity.   I haven't been this pissed off at a game since
Too Human came out & I fucking chose the Bioengineer (worst
class in the game, but I didn't know it & suffered with it).
 
Ok, so I started getting to the glass in the store above the stairs
& fucking "BAM!"  I just fly off into the fucking gray & die!!  Twice
I got up there & it was like "What the fuck just happened?  Where
is the goddamn earth??"  & killed me off.  Other times, the fucking
camera would move backwards away from the car!!!!  I just wanted
to scream & maybe did scream a few times.  Why the fuck is the
camera panning away while I'm still trying to coordinate through the
fucking obstacle course in front of me!!??
 
And then here is the King of All Deaths:  at one point, I hit the 
scaffolding & one of the scaffolds poles got STUCK through my
car.  I couldn't drive because it kept hitting everything along the
way & then the Earth swallows you up again.  At this point, I wanted
to take the DVD out & break it into little pieces.
 
About half way through I got sick of that goddamn chant music,
turned that off.  Vibration was driving me nuts. Turned that off. Then
all those sirens & noise was too distracting as well.  You gotta play
this game on full mute just to concentrate on getting through all
the bullshit, praying the whole time that some stupid random event
isn't going to fuck it up.
 
And here is the funny part how I got through it.  I make it up the ramp
in the store & aim for the glass window. When I go to smash into the 
glass, it's a complete stop!!!  Like it wouldn't bust through. So I drive
through it at 1 mile an hour & a cut scene shows up & I figure it's just
gonna show me die again.  But instead the ground is underneath I
land on it for the first time ever & make my way to this section I've
never seen before.   I smack into some rubble so I'm going super 
slow up the second ramp to the park.  I figure I'm gonna die again
but instead it gets to the cut scene & I survive, after having wasted
all goddamn day trying to get through this. And boy are my nerves
frazzled!!
 
I figured I would get some satisfaction at beating it, but no, that had
to be the most unsatisfying game play I've ever had.  It didn't even
make sense that I survived past it since the other times I smashed
into something, I was usually dead a couple seconds later.
 
They really should have put an easier difficulty setting for those of
us that don't want to feel post traumatic stress disorder while playing
a a fucking game. Something that is supposed to be enjoyable.
Goddamnit..I'm glad through it at least.

Just finished this bit last night. It wasn't too painful at all, and it only took me about 10 minutes or so to learn the route through. Sure, it's a memory test with some twitchy driving thrown in, but I was expecting something far more painful.
 
As rote-learning gameplay goes, I've played far worse. Mind you, maybe the fact that I bought the game for $5 is helping me see things in a far more generous light.
