Yep, that was the biggest thing for me. I always thought the clutch was
a digital interface, but it's very, very analog (there's the geek in me
coming out. I'll tuck that back in :)) Knowing the feel of the clutch
grabbing and knowing what to do at that point (engine bogging - press
clutch, tap gas; engine spinning up, back off the gas, let up on the
clutch) was the toughest part I think.
