Ok i have been driving manual trans for a short period of time roughly 2 months. I just read about dropping the clutch but dont seem to understand. When i tried to do so i put my car in first gear rev to 2000 rpms and let the clutch out completely, this resulted in a stall. So my question is How does dropping the clutch work? am i supposed to rev higher? or am i suppose to let it out quicker than slipping the clutch? And from what i have read so far dropping the clutch is worse for the the car than slipping for short periods of time correct?
