Lol, Thats really bad for your transmission. Once you get it down you can shift fast enough without breaking anything, And the difference between a good fast shift using the clutch and powershifting is negligible. Double clutching is for tractor trailiers. Thats when you put your car in nuetral, let the clutch out, wait for the engine to match rpms for the next gear, and push the clutch back in and put it in the next gear. Thats why they put synchronizers in transmissions, they do all that for you. I remember that line in the fast and the furious "granny shifting and not double clutching like your supposed to. who does that? haha. Its just a waste of time, But im sure it would make your synchros last a little longer.

Leave us alone! lol. F&F doesnt deserve its own thread so we just put it in with power shifting. Oh, and power shifting as it is called is not good for ANY car lol. And double clutching is totally useless unless your trying to make your transmission last 1,500,000 miles. Otherwise it just wastes time.
