All you need is practice. I have been driving a stick since I was 18 and rolling back is not a problem. If someone gets too close behind me when I am on a hill, I rev the engine a bit and pop the clutch and get a faster than normal take off.

Well, I always popped the clutch and I hated that I never seemed to get a smooth getaway. I do better with motorcycles than with cars when it comes to shifting. And, in fact, shifting would be a lot more fun, now that I’ve moved to a rural part of the state. The town I work in just got its first traffic light :-)
