Why don't you try this next time. When you're getting vectors turn the FD off and hand fly. God forbid you might have to think about pitch and power and complying with heading, altitude and speed instructions all at the same time. Takes a bit more thought than simply flying a visual approach, you might find.
Some might say thats putting your balls on the chopping block Mr Spandex.

I get you, but unfortunately some ops manuals state this practise is not permitted until you are cleared for a visual approach (no descent restriction, to avoid confusion). So raw data under radar control might not be such a good idea after all.
