Have you driven at 160km/h, 200km/h, 250km/h, not just a burst but sustained?

In regards to that Flappist, I believe that that is a big issue. I have driven at speeds between 180km/h and 230km/h for sustained periods of time (about 25 minutes per run) at least a couple of times a week for a few years now. Yet I believe that people who just do a "burst" up to a certain speed are very dangerous, as they are obviously just trying to push the limits of themselves and their car, and most of all it's dangerous because it's usually inexperienced people with "i wonder how fast she'll go" mentality.
