how do you "feather" the clutch?
i'm not trying to sound like a noob it's just my crx is slow so i never had any problems w/wheelspin,and now that i got my hatch ready i have a car that actually makes power so i spin them all the way through 3rd even w/ the lsd ITR tranny 
so my 60ft's are crap and when streetrace desent cars i allways have to catch up to them before i pass them

get better tires. To feather the clucth is basically the same as slipping the clutch. It's an art form that takes a while to master. basically you let the clutch part way out and depress the throttle part way. It's a dance that you must learn to get a good launch on crappy street tires.

actually this term is mostly used for new drivers as they tend to keep a foot on the clutch pedal and ride it enough to make the clutch slip. What's next double clutching lol
