Lol. How the heck do stall the engine going from 1st to 2nd. The car should be moving already. Just time the shifts a little better or hold 1st gear a little longer. It's all about matching the speed of the car and speed of the engine, but you already know that. 1st to 2nd is tricky for pretty much most drivers, so don't sweat it.
