Why does the BMW M8 have a top speed limiter and how can it be removed?

I recently bought a BMW M8 and noticed that it has a top speed limiter set at 155mph. Is there a way to remove this limiter? I want to take my car to the track and I'm worried that the limiter will hinder its performance.

The top speed limiter is a safety feature implemented in most BMW cars, including the M8. It is set to 155mph to ensure the safety of the driver and other road users. However, if you want to remove the limiter, you can get a performance upgrade from a reputable BMW tuner. This will increase the car's power and remove the limiter.
