IMHO, they're sort of at cross purposes. If you tried to make the GT3 a better straight-line performer you'd have to compromise its track performance. You'd be tempted to adjust gearing or maybe even move to 4WD for better off-the-line traction. No thanks!
GT2 RS is its own beast but that comes at the expense of forced induction instead of a naturally aspirated engine. It's all compromises beyond a certain point.
The things that make the GT3 sublime on the track make it miserable in a parking deck. I just don't think it's realistic to have it all.
That said -- the 911 in general comes the closest to having it all as any car I've ever seen.

If I wanted to buy a car to drag race with, 911 isn't the one I'd be looking at.
