I see so many people trying to keep the revs down low and not pick them up to set off, this is wrong! - Clutch movement should be smooth and revs should be raised in unison with how fast you're trying to set off. |
First of all, your condescending tone in the first line is very refreshing!
If you read other posts on the forum, you will find that Z's clutch and release point have been an issue for a lot of people. As I stated, I HAVE driven other cars with manual gear box. I find that the engagement point is relatively high on the clutch in comparison to other cars. There is a narrow window on the Z to smoothly pick up the car. I am sure I will get better with time - it's only been a couple of weeks with the car. I wanted to know what people rev starting off in first gear before there clutch engages.
