Safe to do on the right stretch of road - the German gov recognise this, whereas our UK gov prefer to bury their head in the sand and insist on 70mph limit, if not 60/50/40 nowadays

A stock M5 F10 also managed to stay neck a neck and even overtake the 458 over 220. Noone could really understand what happened. 458 are pretty rare here, especially any that frequents these events.

The 488 on the other hand is also slower here than in the rest of the world. The 488 lost to the 991.2 Turbo S stock from 100-250 on highway professional tests. Don't know why or how that happened but it did.
It’s the gas in Brazil. Ferraris are highly sensitive to fuel content and octane.

So let's see...

Racing on public roads.

Doing it with other cars present.

Passing cars.

Going at least 125 mph with a speed limit of 62-75 mph

Doing it at dusk or later.

Got an 11 yr of in the car.

What could possibly go wrong?

As for the autobahn, all the cars have passed German inspection, all of the drivers have passed the German car license test, and all the highways are well kept and made of a pretty gritty concrete. Ya think that's true for Panama (or the US?)

That said, I've done some pretty asshat things myself.

What do I know for sure that BMW used to have (or maybe still has?) some factory bonuses and they seems to be fast cars

Too bad that i don't like new M5 (it looks like 520d with MPackage) howerver this is my subjective opinion. Waiting for M8 Cp
I don't know. The 488 GTB sure as hell is pretty darn fast. I believe the 991.2 was tuned and the owner didn't say it. I got to ride in it, and boy I was impressed about the speed. Plus it murdered many tuned cars (M5, SL 63, 911 997.2 PDK Stage 2+).
Nevertheless the 458 seems slow, it doesn't seem to have 570hp. It is a phenomenal car, but I believe Ferrari cheats on the power. Although our gasoline is crappy, we have high octane gas (97 octane), and the car has 2000 miles, so I can't believe it was not well maintained. It just lacked power. Very weird

Our gas has an exceedingly high ethanol rating (25%), nevertheless it still is 97 octane, and only 50ppm sulphur rating. So it makes no sense, that the car is this slow.
