Hondas are smooth. But not apples to apples. And a whole new can of worms.

since your grammar was not on point on this statement, I will count it as invalid.

What could I be doing wrong?
You tried to go fast, maybe you press the gas too hard, keep the pressure on gas pedal linear and the shift action smoothly.

Ok the first time it did happen while I was turning, I was shifting while turning and a high speed (High Speed for turns)

The other times I was going in a straight line, I feel like sometimes I take the clutch off too fast like not slowly, I just take my foot off really fast, Could that be the problem?

It just mean your traction control is working. Otherwise your rear would be fishtailing and God only knows whats next.
