Even when I hit 140+ to the max of 168 on the autobahn I felt like I could die at any second if someone in front of me didn't see me coming...unless you're planning a trip to germany...I wouldn't recommend it. 155 is plenty fast enough unless you want to track it.
So do you like go around to the Porsche and Ferrari boards passing out your wisdom? It takes eleven hours/1,000 km's just to get out of my State...a tad bigger than Germany with plenty of wide open spaces absent of other vehicles for long stretches. Your advice isn't needed here.
