I like "using" my Saff but you have to pick the time and place. What you cannot predict is what other drivers may do and the chances of avoiding a crash if you are doing silly speeds mixed in with other traffic is pretty slim. The scariest moment I had years ago was when 4 of us all in quick cars were on our way on the motorway to Santa -Pod. Yes we were pushing on and I was in the overtaking lane when a car in the middle lane suddenly pulled over into my lane. How I managed to slow down enough not to hit him I don't know but it scared the shit out of me!!! He obviously was'nt expecting a car to be going as fast as I was to be approaching him from behind! The guy doing over 200mph in his Audi over quite a few miles was very lucky in my opinion to get through it without any incidents.
