Two or three times per year I find myself in the only place in the world where high speed driving is legally allowed, namely on the German Autobahnen. The thrill to do it is there, but given the fact that these roads are never totally empty, and do have quite a number of exit and access roads, the level of attendence required is such that you really feel safer slowing down.
