Yes, regularly. It's all about torque, and we've got barely enough to do this. I've driven some torque monsters that can get into first gear on an incline and creep up it without touching the gas pedal (slowly let out the clutch - better not be anyone behind you

).

once i got used to the engagement point on my last Z i could get it to go up an incline in traffic without stalling or using the gas pedal, 100x easier on the brakes too
