could it be the clutch?
hey guys thanks for the help in advance. I just started driving stick and well at first the clutch in my camaro felt hard and was begging to be a pain but i got used to it, i guess. One time when i had just got the car, i was getting into my driveway and i let the clutch out too fast and the car died. When i try to turn the car again it did kinda like a cracking noise in front of the car were the engine is, to tell the truth i got scared cuz i sounded bad. It does not do the noise when i first turn on the car, only if the car turn's off on me when letting the clutch out to soon. Could it be my clutch? If i pump the clutch a couple of times it still does it but not the with the same hard sound, the sound is a lil bit less hard.
You may have broken a motor mount and the engine is now free to move around when you engage the clutch. You should practice driving a stick on a rice burner, much more forgiving of bad driving. LOL

Re-reading your posts, it appears you stalled the engine by engaging the clutch too quickly. Some engine load up with fuel when this happens and can spit back and backfire on a restart. To check the motor munts, you need to attempt to lft the engine, if it comes up more than 1/2" without also raising the car, the mount is bad.
