There is a certain way to let the clutch up with these cars. You just gotta turn down the radio and test it out several times. If you dont let it up a certain way, you will hear all different types of sounds. I usually let it get close to stalling b4 accelerating out of first gear, but if I can't I'll usually feather it slightly. Meaning balance gas and clutch until it catches but not too high on the rpms. Hope that helps.
