Hmmm, I haven't been around lately, but it seems like my post about the e-brake start has been misunderstood.

You do NOT ride the clutch at any point while doing this. The e-brake simply keeps the car in place while you take off like normal, then as soon as the clutch engages, you let off the e-brake. If you're a good enough driver, you'll rarely/never need it, but I still use this technique on HUGE hills when someone is right behind me. It's a nice trick for the beginner, so they don't stall the car or back into the person behind them because they feel rushed.
