Double clutching is so not needed for any modern cars (only thrashed ones with realy stuffed syncros)
When your double clutching your just wearing out everything twice as fast including your syncros.
Whats wrong with a big rev as u downshift to match excessive revs?
I normaly give a little blip on downshifts to help prolong the life of my syncros.
|
how can you prolong the life of the syncros by bliping the throttle, when you change gear without double clutch your lower gear isn't even spining, so you're using the syncro, not prolonging it.
many gearboxes pre-90 is pretty bad on downshift, it makes the shifting faster and shaves a few more seconds per lap, and most gearbox doesn't have syncros on 1st gear, and even if there is, the ratio of 1st gear to other gears are too much difference, as noted, if you don't know why you need to do it, and what it does, then don't do it..
But it's a joke to tell people you drive a manual if you can't shift smoothly up and down gears better than an automatic gearbox, and don't tell anybody you lost because you missed a gear...  you may as well race an automatic car, every little bit counts, and the less wear you cause on the car, the more chances your car can cross the finish line, namely most important is the tyres, that's why you have to heel toe smoothly and not waste 0.1 seconds of braking time and/or acceleration time, 0.5 seconds in 1 lap means 10 seconds in 20 laps, and how much is that?
