Us Rev-Up motors have a 7100 RPM redline for a reason. Use all of it. If you are racing, shift at 7100 rpm at every shift, but dont hit the rev limiter. Shift exactly before the first red line...Make sure to have VDC off when racing.

The best advice I can give to learning this car, is timing. If the car lurches forward after a shift, you're not letting the rpm's drop long enough. Wait a little bit before fully letting up the clutch. If the car pulls you back after a shift, youre taking too long to shift. No one can teach you how to drive over an internet forum post, the best we can do is give you basic tips. The only possible way to master it, is to practice (daily driving) by yourself.

find a hill early in the morning when no ones driving and just sit there, roll back, go forward etc. to feel where your clutch engages. Thats what I did, helped a lot.

Alot of that and you will wear the sh*t out of your clutch, especially when your steadying the car for long periods of time...

Your f*cking dog is a noob! lol I dont use it, but when I first learned I did, and the OP seems like quite the noob. The e-brake is kind of like the training wheels on a lil girls bike, its kind of like cheating but really not...LOL
