before you take your foot off of the gas to shift into second, put your foot on the clutch, it will allow for a smoother shift.

In other words, do not take your foot off the gas completely when you put your foot on the clutch. have a little gas, as it will allow for a smoother shift.

Do a quick burn out if your on street tires and go around the water box. You do thing to get the dirt off the tires.

Line and rev to 3500-4500. and pop the clutch when the light turn green and have fun.
