happened AGAIN to me today. WOT 1st went to shift to second, and wouldnt engage in 2nd until RPM dropped to 4500! and no matter how hard i pulled the lever... made an awful grind too. then i tried it again and what i found is that if the car hits the rev-limiter at 8400 then 2nd gear will not engage and it will grind. if you shift before 8000 it will engage just fine.
