Human Factors
While talking to Tampa and cleared into Class B airspace I descended out of the Class B airspace. I set up a normal cruise power setting and flew south off the coast. I then climbed back into Class B and headed back east. I was new to a fast airplane and not used to the speeds it is capable of. In reviewing my flight I realized that I must have been at too high an airspeed below the Class B airspace; about 230 knots. I will be sure to slow before descending below Class B for now on.
Experimental aircraft pilot reported exiting Class Bravo while flying at over 200 KTS.
