Hey guys i have a question about driving and i hope you can help

>i have to slowly take my foot off the clutch and gas at the same time, correct?
No, that's only when you're starting from a stop, all you're doing is frying your clutch by slipping it excessively. You can dump the clutch after gear changes.
Jerking is probably because you let the revs fall way too far when shifting

so wait do you mean that i can start gasing and let go of the clutch? wont i stall?

Give it more gas. Hold your gas till your gauge says around 3k rpm. Start letting the clutch out and apply even more gas as you simultaneously release the clutch.

>mfw europoors need 4 FUCKING PEDALS

how in the fuck do you operate on that

>>14106286
Sound like you need more gas, or you are shifting too low in rpm. Either way, just keep practicing and you will get smoother with time

It's all about rev matching, not how fast or slow you release the clutch.
Let's say you're in 3rd gear at 3k rpms and you want to shift into 4th gear. You're gonna want the rpms to drop to about 2k for 4th gear. So press in the clutch wait for rpms to start dropping, then let out clutch fast.
This is how you will get a smooth shift, same thing goes for downshifting but instead of waiting for rpms to drop you want to blip the throttle to raise rpms and then release the clutch.
It will all come to you with practice.

You mean take your foot off the clutch and getting on the gas at the same time, right? It sounds like you're not on the gas enough.

That's a dead pedal (footrest) on the left.

Just float gears pussy

If you're changing gears (not starting) you can let the clutch go quickly and give gas earlier. The higher the gear the quicker you let it out. At 3rd to 4th you shouldn't need any delay at all because the engine and transmission is at such high speed that the clutch gets sandwiched harder than your mother on blacked.

If your car jumps while shifting gears then your clutch or car is fucked in some way. It shouldn't happen.

Starting is a different story.

Yeah that was my problem i though that you always had to bring the clutch up slowly. That fucking explains why i drive like shit.

Try only pushing the clutch in halfway and then force the gear shift. It will be difficult but you need to apply as much force as necessary and shift up.

That will stop it from jumping.

>such terrible bait yet you all still take it

>>14107488
Also, start your car while in gear and push the gas down to the fucking floor.

This. OP is simply taking too long to shift and his car is losing to much speed during his shifting process because he's overthinking it. This is pretty common when you're just starting out though.

Also, there's a huge difference between how you drive a little high revving manual versus a big loping manual. I learned on an Accord but now I have a Ram and a Fox. Big difference.
