I do get what you're saying:
[QUOTE=caponi14]When there is no music, and i play with myself, i can pretty much play these kinds of things without thinking too much about it. But when i have to play these kinds of things in a proper solo i feel that what i do is wrong. I don't feel i get the timing right, i just don't feel that i can pull it off in a solo even though i played those fast licks so much in my few years of playing. I don't know if i can actually do them...

I actually get exactly what you're saying.

I used to play 'Sweet Child' in a band. It's a good, 'groovy' chill song to play with a smokin' solo section. Similar to what you posted with the Alice Cooper song (love that song too), Sweet Child's solo has that ascending run in the middle. The run isn't just a flurry of notes but follows the songs meter. Count off the beats during that ascending part.

Even on the Cooper song, while a little less obvious, it still falls within a groove. Those accelerating parts can be challenging but you have to listen to the groove. Your body has to be swinging and swaying in the groove and your notes will follow.
