I've only done it a few times as it is a tremendous waste of gas.
I always found that the fastest traffic on a routine basis was on the 8 lane (4 each way) A5 between Darmstadt and Frankfurt. The left lane was full of tailgating cars all going at least 200km/h. Quite a thrill for first time tourists renting cars from the Airport.
