    Handbrake start is what’s taught in countries where the the driving test isn’t “Press go pedal, press stop pedal, congrats you passed”

    In upward inclines it’s better for your clutch too.

    Not having the coordination to use both feet and both hands independently of each other is what’s for noobs

      Laughs in knowing how much clutch pressure to apply to start your car uphill without grating cheese

      I’ve been taught to balance between brake and clutch for inclines. Or is that the same thing?

        Aye even my poverty-spec car locks the manual transmission on a hill until the clutch bites

        Didn’t even know it did it until I’d had it for over a year 😂
