    hey guys, i've been driving stick for about 5 weeks now and i have a question. i know that rolling stop signs are bad and should not be done, but i know everyone does it because it saves more time. anyways, if i am driving like at night or in a place where there is no one, i want to know how to roll stop signs. say i am going 40 mph in 4th gear and i put it into neutral. what should i do next when i get to the line? since i am going to fast for 1st gear, can i just put it into 2nd gear? every time i do this, my car starts lugging and i wasn't sure if it was right or not. i wanted to see what you guys do in this situation. thanks a lot!:)

    Don't roll stop signs at all. You will either get a ticket or hurt someone.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    You will not get advice on how to break the law on TW. Please refrain from asking these questions.

    And it doesn't save time and not everyone does it.

    i do it to never had a problem. the lugging is because your in to high of a gear. i also started out from a dead stop in second that wil just wear the clutch out quicker. " bad habits are hard to break" quote hank williams jr. its true im sure others will better help you. but i hope this sheds some light.
    just dont do it

    Less things to know if you just stop and start again...You know how to do that.

    I don't roll stop signs- and I listen to the engine and know what it wants as far as gear goes all the other times...Learning how to drive stick takes time with a knowledgeable skilled driver in the truck with you.

    Please tell me you're kidding?? Stop signs are meant to be STOPPED at, not rolled through....

    If you are that bad on a manual tranny, they have places called "driver training" and I'm sure they will help you out for a fee....
