Trying to get it dialed in, ran out of time before it started raining.

Nope, never got a good launch. All of my 60fts were 2.1ish, and I was running some beat RA1s but still, I should be at least 1.8 considering I hit that twice on Azenis with no launch control. I was pretty pissed when it started raining, I think a few more launches and I would have gotten it down with changing the RPMs. Lets just say my times today were pretty disappointing, I still haven't beaten my best ET from last year.
I have a feeling if you knew how to grip the shifter like a real man, you wouldn't have so much trouble into first. Looks like you are trying to give that thing a reach-around.
also are you shifting at like 4K?

Common is from Chicago, close enough!
Do you mean 3rd gear? Its not really a problem anymore since I fixed my clutch issue, thats the only time I have mis shifted since then.
And no, I shift around 7200k. I short shifted the second run in that video because I fucked up the launch and didn't feel like finishing the pass WOT.
2.5" open, 2' after turbo

The first run that I bogged was at 3400, the second run with loads of wheel spin was 3700, third run that slightly bogged was 3500. I set it to 3550 and went to run again but it started raining. I think 3600 might be the magic number with these tires. Drag radials are next on my list.
BTW, I switched my launch control settings to fuel/spark cut at -10deg, and now I build around 6psi versus full wastegate pressure with spark only at 5deg like I previously had. Thanks for posting those settings guys!
