just because it's VMC, doesn't mean you can disregard the speed limits, because you obviously still can't see terrain
Despite that point re not seeing the terrain, the AIP states you can descend below the circling MDA at night any time it suits you for the aircraft descent profile. The small print however says you are entirely then responsible for your own terrain clearance.
