Neutral, you can wear out your clutch pedal by keeping it pressed in for long periods of time. Just pay attention to the other light and put it in first as it goes yellow.

i don't know about that. if the clutch is all the way in it shouldn't be engaged at all. but if you let it out a bit too far you will start wearing it down without really knowing it.

then again, i dont know everything.

Third gear starts? Come on.. That's for girls.

You know our cars have enough torque to get them rolling from
a stop in 5th gear right?

I do it all the time, and if I'm feeling bad ass, I give her hell and chirp
the tires.

as long as your foot is pressed all the way to the floor. but your foot tends to kinda let up a bit by itself so it is better to just throw it in neutral
