Lug/shaky feeling when going from neutral to 1st gear

thanks for the help, but i wanted to know what to do for double clutching when already in neutral and going to 1st as the guy above said. i'm not talking about say already in 4th, throw it into neutral, then the next lower gear. what to do if it is already in neutral and want to get it into 1st?

 

Did you try pushing in the Clutch, Shifting into 2nd, shifting into first, then letting out the clutch?

 

When rolling and going from second to first, bumper to bumper where i spend too much time, if you put a little pressure on the stick but don't quite force it into fist, you can hear the rpms start to go up. This is the sincro's or something, but it will match the tranny and wheel speed.Once it winds up the tranny, takes less than a second, it will slide right in.
When learning stick i recomend driving with the radio off. All seasoned stick drivers I know shift by ear. once you are used to it you can hear it with the radio loud.

I just got back from my usual bumper-bumper on I-5 northbound and I noticed that I was @ 8mph when she went into 1st using the above technique.

 

I did it at about 20 mph yesterday.

 

Yeah, but you had to spinning 3 grand
