not all dog boxes are straight cut, but if you go to the effort of making a dog box, then you are probably looking for ten-tenths and need to reduce friction losses in the box.
to be honest you don't need to use the clutch for a normal gearbox, but it means that you don't need to rev match if you use the clutch.
with a race car, you have lightened engine bits, so the revs drop quickly, and as the dog bits are very strong, you can just shove the gear in.
if you do that with a normal box, you are more likely to break the teensy bits that match the gears speed....
a few bike buddies hardly ever use the clutch on their bikes except when stopping and starting off..
Cya, Stewart
