some beginner manual starting issues

lol wouldn't blame you

 

smart thinking lol. its miller-motte tech college.

 

SO

my instructor doesn't want me to start in 2nd! he says he doesn't want to risk me accidentally going into reverse! so the lowest I can go is 3rd. and not first because "that's way to slow to start out in"....
yeah. It was hard to get him to let me not start in 4th....

So I start in 3rd, I need to work on the slow release of the clutch while keeping the rpms around 6-8, so its still a choppy start but its getting a little better. The other 2 with me have driven manuals and have no trouble getting it starting smooth in 4th so its definitely possible.

Im never going to be doing this on my road test or when I go to a company, but I gotta please this dude, idgaf if I #### their truck up since they seem to want me too.

With that said, any tips on making this work better being I have to do it? correct rpms to have it at? can I go to high with the rpms (to a reasonable limit) or will it just improve the chances of starting smooth? when I hit the point of it starting to disengage I am going slow but should I be going like extremely extremely slow? im having a hard time putting it together.
