his car was hopping like a bunny.

in all seriousness though, probably bad launches and made his car jerk real bad.

OP try letting the clutch out slower. i was "bunny hopping" bad when i first drove stick, but now i just let the clutch out a bit slower and its smooth

you have to remember to take it out of 1st gear

really tho, you have to ease on the clutch bra

Go from bunny hop to wheel hop LoL

I used to do that on occasion though when I first got mine. But I have an ingalls torque damnper, so I would just sit and spin. Haha

I'll tell you the same things I've told every guy that ever worked for me.

Get your foot the **** off my clutch. It's not a foot rest.

probably boggin the **** out of it too, that will make it jerk and hop. Stay above 2kish when your driving, if you have to give it gas be above 2k anyway, if your flat rolling, you can be at like 16-1700

ya the lsj drives almost completely different than the lnf... 1st gear is pretty worthless, so start slow, ease the clutch out and get into 2nd kinda soon.

Coblasts

Watch the wheel hop,and avoid it if possible .You will Crack the tranny and oil will leak onto the clutch.
And no warranty for this happening.
To avoid the Hop let the clutch out a little slower.

less clutch more gas

1st gear in a LSJ is good for pulling tree stumps ...... not much else.
