I am coasting into 1 too much as well need to stay on the gas longer, but at 140 plus it's been messing up my turn in to 1 when i brake later. Just need more repetitions only been doing this for a year.

1 definitely need to lay into it all the way to the markers, then hard brake. In my Z I was actually down shifting to 3rd once I hit the first apex which allowed me to get to power earlier on the exit of the 2nd part of the turn and rotate the car. This may be different with your gearing.
Trick to 3 is to turn in much earlier and hug the inside of the turn there. The pavement is shaped like a /\ from when they paved it, you can load the car up on the inside and get to full throttle for a second going into your brake/downshift. If you spun there it's likely from being a bit too wide and getting the off camber side where there is a ton of marbles. More grip on the inside will also let you get to throttle from 2-3 more, but still will want a lift to settle the car.
Another trick to Roebling for the wallet, make sure you're swapping your tires right to left at the end of each day.
