You may jest, 'Polestar Pete',
but I actually took my IAM test in a Sunbeam Imp Sport! The examiners were all ex grade 1 Police drivers, and what 'S60D5-185' said about commentary driving is dead right - I found it tiring at normal / legal speeds, so I can only imagine doing so while things are flashing by at twice the national speed limit! Huge respect to those who do this on a daily basis. It certainly sharpens concentration, and is a technique I still practice today when I find myself in difficult situations or unfamiliar surroundings.
