clutch jerking/hesitation on acceleration from stop

it's all to do with the timing and how fast you're releasing the clutch... when I first started driving I found that around 3-3.5k would give me jerks and 4.5-5k

it's all to do with the timing and how fast you're releasing the clutch... when I first started driving I found that around 3-3.5k would give me jerks and 4.5-5k would be my sweet spot for first gear.

I then realized shift for how fast the car is going... meaning if you're revving lower ranges and shifting you need to be slow in your clutch, if you're above 4.5k you can be a bit 'faster'

this clutch is definitely one of the areas that adds 'character' to our car
