Default i think i made a bad decision

my bike scared the crap outta me today. i passed a truck that was doing 25 in a 40 on the part of the road where passing is allowed. so i downshift to second and hit the throttle. before i could blink (slight exaggeration) i was doing 70. i got freaked out, and thats the end of passing anyone ever again. not even my "souped up" wrx could move that fast...and i have a gs500 (which i was told is the lowest model sportbike).
