But on the street I never get close to redline, which is why it is pointless. The street is not the track.

There are always moments, of course, but for the most part I really never do any redline shifting on the street. Occasionally if I am making a pass out on a rural two-lane road or something.

In my experience, the harder you drive at the track, the less you feel like you need (or want) to screw around out on the street. You get used to the relatively controlled and predictable environment. Besides, nothing it is reasonable to do on the street compares to the thrill of the track, so why bother?
