I generally don't have a lot of trouble getting around 3.2 Carreras on the track either, for what that's worth - although of course at that point you're comparing non-stock cars with different drivers and it's basically meaningless.
It's all how you drive it. If you try and drive your 911 like you drive your M3....well, the 911 isn't going to work as well. Trailing throttle oversteer is your friend...use it wisely.

Plus if your stock 911 has tired suspension that isn't going to help matters.
