Have you learned to do a solid handbrake start on hills yet? Once you master that, you can relax. There's a great deal more to learn, of course, but mastering that removes a huge worry. It also saves your clutch disk from the unavoidable excess wear that accompanies doing it any other way.

You've come a long way ... you deserve something really nice. You've earned it.

This is exciting...
Yeah I practiced a little on a hill awhile back with my mother as well as a parking lot. Shes a real pro so I'm confident Ill be as good in no time. I learned on a 93 Ford Escort so when I was on the test drive in the frs it felt amazing! That gearbox is like butter
I still have a lot more practicing to do though
