Start Car
clutch in
Put car in first
release clutch slowly until car starts to move (slowly) without use of gas
clutch in
Do it again
clutch in
Do it again
this will teach you where the "clutch point" of this particular car is at, each car, even same make, will have it at different points.
once your clutch foot gets to that point on its own (muscle memory), you start to apply gradual throttle as you release the clutch completely
then off you go, 2nd is the same but much quicker and less finesse is required.
clutch, gear, gas+drop clutch
