you never know when you push the clutch down that the shift in pressures and stresses on the car can cause the alignment to get absolutely fu**ed up


that guy doesn't know anything. Push your clutch in all you want when you turn

ok, so clutch down, shift into first gear, rev to about 1,500 and release clutch on green light? Sorry if these questions are really basic, i'm still only about two weeks into driving stick.
