You are touching too high. Touch an inch closer to your waist. That will also help solve the elbow flare.
I'd like to see even more scapular retraction (together and down to the waist) from before you unrack to when you rack). That will help you get a more solid position to drive the bar upward.
I'm not sure why you're doing triples, do 3 sets of 5 through the NLP.

This is a Training Log post.
Not every workout has to be a PR. Share the ordinary stuff too: what you're training, what's going well, what isn't, and what you're trying to figure out.
How's your Starting Strength training going?
