up-hill starts in stop-go traffic

The old tried and true system of using the parking brake to hold the car until you have the revs you want and then release the brake. I still use this when some jerk pulls right up to my rearend on stop light on a hill.

Until you get accustomed to the clutch and throttle this works great. And like zcar said, I still use it when someone's on my tail.
