So does anyone have any tips on learning stick. How should i expect the car/tranny to behave. My biggest fear is having to stop on incline and having to start again with someone right behind lol. I'v heard of using the e-brake to hold the car at the stop until you engage the clutch enough that the car starts to pull away.

Once you start practicing a little bit, I find that just relaxing and not thinking about it too much helps getting out of 1st gear more smoothly. When I look at the tach when taking off, I tend to not engage as smoothly. Feel it out haha
