If you are driving the same way on the track as the road you are doing one of them all wrong.

The car handles the same on the street as it does on the track. You might have noticed today that racing cars can race on a closed street circuit at say Monaco or Valencia or Singapore. Street cars can race on a track. If you think your car will handle differently just because you take it onto a track you are in for a big surprise.
Driving techniques are exactly the same if driving at the limit whether on track or street. The difference is only that you cannot feasibly drive most modern performance cars at the limit on the street unless it is closed for that purpose.
Driving safely on the street (at any speed) requires orders of magnitude more skill than driving on a track. Ask any racing driver.
