If it was in gear when you came to a stop, it wouldn't really stall, even with the huge cam--at least not before it lurched 10-20 feet. Made me paranoid.

1-2 in the 'vert SUCKED, but 1-2 in the hard-top I drove was great. The seat in the 'vert wouldn't go back far enough to accomodate the clutch pedal/me. I'm only 5'10.5" I thought this was wierd...
Yea that made big difference for me, i'm tall so if i dont push the seat back all the way i keep giving too much gas and shifting sucked, its hard to get smooth shifts on this car unless you're at 5k rpm, comming from muscle cars we're used to shifting at low rpms to save gas and with high tourqe
