Hold some steady throttle and release the clutch in a controlled stroke.
Curious as to why feathering is not good for these cars.

I own a 2LT 6-speed stick. I was at the dealer the other day and they had an SS with manual trans. I asked to drive it and they quickly obliged.

The clutch catches slightly closer to the floor than the LT's. NO BIG DEAL. I had no trouble whatsoever. The car FREAKIN' ROCKS! SS or LT FTW!
