You have to think, as much as you let off the clutch let off the gas does that make sense?

2,000 RPMS I think or even 1,800 is the perfect RPM to let go of the clutch, now when I say let go dont think "Drop" the clutch cause that will almost give you a mini burn out, and or kill your car.

So remember give enough force letting off the clutch as much gas as you give into it, and remember RELAX when driving a stick

When it jerks back and forth that means its either your letting the clutch out too quick aka dumping the clutch or not giving enough gas... clutch you'll smell if your giving it to much gas why the clutch is still depressed.

I made it to work without stalling. I've gone stall free for 1 complete day! The clutch petal is still so grabby. I'm at 400miles now and still cant get the petal to be less 'springy'. It seems to wanna spring back on me when i push it down...modulating it is still proving tough. Will the petal eventually soften or will i have to get used to this?

I don't feel like my pedal fights up against me when I'm driving. But that might be because I started learning on a 78 Porsche with the clutch on a cable. The force pushing back at you was pretty heavy. But the clutch should break in as time goes on. So I wouldn't worry too much.
