Autobahns are crazy.

I have recently ridden one at around 150 (indicated, so more likely 140 actual) and was overtaken at least 5 times in 20 mins.

Nuts is all I can say.

insane.

I have to say the Autobahns seem much safer - we used to go to the continent a lot, I've only ever been a passenger though.

The camera car was doing approx. 160 km/h (100 miles/hour) the Z06 was doing approx. 320 km/h (200 miles/hour) on the A31 Autobahn in Germany on Sunday April 13th 2008.
The Z06 was one of several cars including Audi RS4, RS6, BMW M3, M5 a Hartge Z3 Coupe and a Lamborghini Diablo doing flying runs at speeds between 250 km/h (156 miles/hr) and 320 km/h (200 miles/hr)
