To the OP:

P.S. - After partying all night nonetheless = tired at the very least

Like one said, the power in these cars is like a drug. Very temping and if I had a place where it was legal, under the right circumstances I might try my own personal land speed record.

Good for the OP for enjoying his car. Definitely has big ***** doing this at night. For the most part, at 195mph, the car will outrun the visibility of the headlights every 2-3 seconds. I race an definitely would need more visibility than 2-3 seconds. And no, I'm not trying to be a nanny. We all do things from time to time that we know was not the smartest idea at the time...but we still do it

Here some cool numbers;
at 195mph
-the car is driving at 286 feet/second - almost an American football field every second-at the speed you are doing a little more than 1 million feet/hour
