Ron,
That may be true to some extent, but I doubt if many people can do it that
accurately, and it rather then begs the question as to what are the synchro
rings for?
I think it also depends on the type of driving you do. If you potter along
in the sunshine and are never in a hurry, then maybe double de-clutching is
ok. But I use mine as a daily driver and work car. I need to keep up with -
or ahead of, the modern traffic in all sorts of driving conditions. DD
clutching just doesn't come in to it!. I have just travelled about 160
miles this morning, to attending work meetings in the western Lake District,
including fast dual carriageways, twisty narrow lanes and single track
mountain passes. And if at every change I de-clutched, moved into neutral,
took my foot off the clutch, blipped the throttle, depressed the clutch
again and then moved into the next gear I would still be 100 miles away!
Guy

Doesn't that mean that a properly executed
rev-matching double clutch doesn't "involve" your
synchros and is saving your transmission?
