You don't mention what gear you are in at these speeds. The lower
the gear, the more responsive the car will probably be to the
throttle, foot coming on OR off. At least, mine seems that way. For
a smoother ride for your passenger, perhaps you want to be in one
higher gear than you are in? Maybe let in the clutch and gently
downshift? I suspect, as others have alluded, that it's in your
technique.
Practice with an egg in the passenger seat. :)
