Can't wait to get out there on the track once I can afford it

It's funny how deceiving video can be sometimes. I've got video of going 130 or so in a straight line that looks like I'm only going 60! But you're right... you're not used to taking turns quite that fast on the street (or at least you shouldn't be!) Track time's not all that expensive. You're not too far from Laguna Seca... that's an incredible track! One of these days I'm going to get out there and check it out (and probably wind up wrecking a rental) I believe I remember hearing somewhere that some clubs rent it on holidays and get really good rates so that you can run there pretty cheap if you're willing to do it on a holiday.
