As I've gotten used to driving this clutch I have started encountering an odd problem. In 1st and 2nd gear, between 1-2k rpm, the throttle is extremely sensitive, especially in 1st. I've noticed it mostly in a parking lot situation where I have the clutch fully engaged and trying to drive slowly. If I just barely move my foot the car can start bucking wildly. If accelerating up to street speeds, no problem.

Any thoughts?

Maybe there is a "Sprint Booster" (changes the responsiveness of the gas pedal) installed?

Are you an experienced stick shift driver?
If yes, it takes 1 or 2 rides to get used to the Porsche.
If not, it might take a few days/weeks to find and know the sweet spot of the clutch/gas by heart, when shifting.

Anyways, Gute Fahrt! (sounds funny, I know) from Germany
