So I've been driving stick for 6 months now.

I'm good at all and can be super fucking smooth but it seems that no matter how smooth I am, my passengers always lurch forward a bit when I shift. Usually it's girls who are 110lbs and have never been in my car before so they don't expect it I guess. I don't move at all.

What am I doing wrong when shifting?

People just do that because they don't know when you're going to throttle on or off.

>>14122484
Also my car is a 2013 5.0 Mustang so it's pretty torque-y. Is this normal?

You're not shifting smooth enough.
You'll get better as you've been driving for a longer time. No worries
>>
You'll get smoother. Practice with a tall drink in a cupholder.

But where am I messing up so I can fix this?

And it feels like I'm driving baby smooth. And no, I don't mean like their entire bodies lunge forward just their heads lurch forward a tiny bit.

You can't change physics.
When you step off the accelerator to shift, the car stops accelerating, but not their heads.
>>
>>14122537
You could minimize the time between shifting to avoid it.
You could also step off the accelerator more slowly to make the car's momentum change less sudden for them.
>>
>>14122537
What if I shift without stepping off the gas?

Girls like to feel tossed around a little bit. Don't worry about it. Just imagine they're nodding "Yeah give it to me"
>>
>>14122559
That would wear out the clutch unnecessarily.
>>
>>14122572
I like the way you think.
>>
Try this: when you go to shift don't let off the gas until you start pushing the clutch in so that you get a little blip and your revs go up by a few hundred when the clutch is out. This should make it a smoother transition when letting off the gas.

Watch your passengers lurch forwards as you red line and scare seven shades of shit out of them.
