How to Start Quickly with a Manual Transmission?

[DiFrancisco]

Press the clutch pedal all the way down and release it slowly. Quickly lift the clutch to the semi-engaged point, and when the car starts to vibrate, stop lifting your left foot and hold the clutch steady. When starting, shift into first gear first, slowly release the clutch, and apply the throttle at the semi-engaged point. Only release the clutch completely once the car starts moving. Lightly press the accelerator with your right foot until the RPM reaches around 1300-1500, then slowly release the clutch with your left foot while simultaneously applying more throttle with your right foot. Shift gears when the engine RPM is around 2000. First reduce the throttle, then press the clutch pedal down to prevent forced disengagement, and then shift gears. The gear shifting sequence must be first gear → second gear → third gear → fourth gear → fifth gear. Downshift according to the vehicle speed.
