If on the flat, I usually let the clutch out at idle without the throttle, shifting so that I have the car in top at 30 mph. I don't skip gears but let each ratio do their job, to let the engine work efficiency. My car is an IDI with only 68 hp, doesn't have a tach YMMV.

“Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom in Europe.
The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed.”
