Yeah. Here (USA) you have to get lucky; a hwy that has traffic stopped miles ahead; go faster than anybody else, so nobody's behind you, and you have the road to yourself. Then you can play. My Stinger's NAV "led me" to the venue I've just described. I think NAV (the name of my car) is a pooka! :D:D:D I took full advantage, and got her up to 155mph.

My speedometer shows 160 km/h in the middle and goes up to 260 while the top speed of the car is 240, each mark is consistent with 20 km/h between steps. This goes from 10 between 0-100, 20 between 100-180 and 30 between 180-300. Audi and others make the same thing to make you feel like it's faster than it really is.
