You can do the 2nd-1st shift, which often works. Or, you can just skip first. It's pointless to use first in just about all Saturns, by my experience. You can take off in 2nd the same way I did in my Honda Civic or Ford Escort in 1st. I dunno why, but it seems like that gear is a waste of weight, honestly. Maybe it's for pulling stuff? LOL.

Dude - Never underestimate the power of human kindness. I've been given things by people I've NEVER met, or only met once. Check my thread titled "Find!" for a perfect example. (Just use the search for the thread title.)
