I had a similar problem om my car. The chatter was really bad unless I released the clutch pedal carefully, and with a limited amount of revs. Quick starts were impossible.

It turned out that the source of the problem was poorly adjusted clutch wire and clutch pedal. After carefully following the procedure described in Wayne Dempsey's book, it worked like a charm. Now I can take off with spinning wheels without any risk of the clutch shaking itself, the transmission and the engine to pieces.

I believe the procedure is described in both the Haynes and the Bentley manuals, too. I had them both in my garage, but didn't know just how important it was to follow the correct procedure. Now I know.

You can't make a racehorse out of a bull, but you can make an awfully fast bull.
