Need help taming this thing...

I just started autocrossing my 2002 Boxster S with 18" wheels with Michelin PS rubber. I seem to have trouble with pointing the right end of the vehicle in the right direction, thus I have made a habit of spinning out. I have been running 40/40 in front/rear pressures. Any advice? The car is completely stock. The tires are the original and are on their last few miles.

In my very amateur opinion the rear seems too stiff and I have very little feedback before it breaks loose. Is this old tires? Am I just a lousy driver? When I'm not spinning out I have been putting down some pretty good times considering I am running street tires.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm having a blast and am trying to learn how to drive this car at its limits.
