If you want the best acceleration you need to keep it in first until redline. First will get you past that torque dip faster than any other gear and into the second torque peak.
The second torque peak is higher than the first torque peak and will provide better acceleration. When you shift from 7k in first to second, the needle will drop down almost perfectly into the absolute peak in second gear. By the time you redline in second, you will most likely be speeding since this is 59mph. Shifting slows you down no matter how fast you do it. Fewer shifts = faster acceleration.
