Based on the vid you're shifting into 4th just past the 1000 ft mark.Might want to try a 28" tire and see if you can go thru the traps at the top of 3rd,although you might be bouncing off the limiter.

Are you shifting at redline in each gear?
Have you thought about switching pumpkins with the auto? Up to 4th gear there is quite a difference in the gearing between the auto and the manual.
Auto or stick, he is going too fast to cross in 3rd, at least on a regular basis without damaging something.
