The front end feels like its about to come off the ground but it does not spin.
If you dont believe me your welcome to take it for a spin and I will show you the miracle that we call first gear.

I also have a miracle called first gear, but mine thrives on a 3.27 rear axle ratio. I absolutely do not disbelieve you, but I do find it completely contrary to my experience. I wonder what engine you are running? Is it possible that you are running a peaky motor? I have run the M/Ts on my car and can smoke them at will in low gear above 2000/2500 rpm with a fully engaged clutch. I am quite jealous of the incredible traction you are achieving and want some for myself!
