Touchy/jumpy throttle

Hey all,

Really loving my car. Just took it on a short distance drive over to San Antonio from Houston.

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?

Jason
