I didn't let her leave 1st gear for the first few nights. I've had her stop and go a few hundred times, getting used to just engaging and disengaging the clutch. It appears she may be done stalling in 1st, but now shes "popping the clutch" out really fast after going into 2nd or 3rd and it's jerking the car.
She'll get it soon enough, from what I can tell, I just wanted to get rid of any concerns that some damage may have been caused from the numerous, early stalls.
