Night is hardly a good moment for a highspeed race. Very poor visibility (extremely easy to outrun car's lights), but even if a race happens on a nicely lit highway, there's no protection from wild life that are more common in night time.
- tomcooks 6y agoAt night every moving object on a high speed highway has lights that make them more visible, wild life is fenced off the road and there are just a few vehicles. Bonus points: no trucks at night.
- emteycz 6y agoI see you never went 200+ km/h at night. The reality: It becomes impossible to recognize whether it's a car or a truck or a bike or nothing above 200. I regularly drive 260 on the autobahn like many people do, but evening is the slow-down moment for most of us. The risk of wildlife is extreme at these speeds, too, fencing does not exist and/or has holes. Trucks drive at night a lot, and you can't see the properly at night; at these speeds, trucks that are side by side can appear like one being behind the another - very scary experience when you realize the reality (usually only ~30 meters behind).

- lmilcin 6y agoAt 220 there isn't much you can do if something shows up at the limit of your beams or if somebody decides to change lanes at a wrong moment. You are effectively giving away your life to the clueless people driving in front of you and also to the fact there is absolutely nothing obstructing the road.
