This is probably in part of me being a beginner manual driver as well - trying to shift gears quicker and at appropriate revs and preventing stalling. But it somewhat disheartening when a mom in a corolla with kids in the back seat are outgunning me the first few gears from dead stop. I think there is an unspoken rule that if your car looks fast, people expect you to drive fast. Because race car.

It's definitely your driving. Corollas are always blocking my fucking way. Never the other way around
