I was surprised how well it kept in a straight line actually.
And there's a time and a place for testing that much speed, and a public highway at night is not it! :nono:
Legal in Germany though? (depending where you are).

Very :tosser: to do it in the dark and/or wet though like they were for some of it :roll:

If you're "surprised" how well something drives in a straight line then you know they're asking for trouble ;-)

My point exactly, and legal or not, that's irresponsible and dangerous towards every car he passes.
