Currently shifting at 6400 rpm in each gear. Making 94.+ Mph keeping it in second thru the 1/4. Would dropping the shift point from 6400 to 6100 for the 1-2 give me any help?
Peak HP is at 5800.

I would hold first gear as long as possible. The transition between first and second gear is huge in the 60e. As long as you are not losing more than 10-20 hp over the extra 300-400 rpm's, I think you will be fine.
You going to Sonoma today?

yep the 2nd gear change sucks... hold it as long as you are comfortable with. You are kind of defeating yourself by shifting too much past the peak of your hp curve though. all things to think about.
