you dont need a clutch to change gears in manuals... just rev change it.
no crunch, instant power... and it never fails to amaze people who dont understand how a gearbox works ... they think you're brilliant (well, I am... but even moreso Razz

)

clutch is needed for starting, that is all

You can change gears without a clutch no problem and cause no damage to the gearbox you just need to do it at the right RPM, i know in my car you can do it between gears when at 2,800rpm and it goes into the next gear no problem at all except sure you can slam it into gear at just about any rev range but thats going to root the gear box overtime and your bound to get a nice crunching noise,

the sequantial gear boxes in WRC cars ect... are the same sort of set up as a V8 supercars gearbox. where all the gears are already connected and spinning together except when you change gears all it does is connect the gear to the shaft (stop gear from spinning on shaft) thats what stops the crunching as the gears are always connected so theres nothing to crunch although they don't always drive like that because it puts an increadable amount of wear on the components (mostly due to the amount of power and torque those engines put out) but guys i'll do some looking around and see if i can get some detailed drawings and so forth on how a true sports sequantial works.
