regarding the starting on a hill: let out the clutch a bit before you let go of the brake, that way its very close to the point of engagement and you can just gas it without rolling back as much.

or you can just roll back until you hit the car behind you. then once you can't roll back anymore you start to give it gas.

Easiest way is holding up the handbrake and release the clutch as you would normally and when you feel the car pull on the handbrake you release it.

no need for instant jumping to gas before omg I crash into somebody
