Spread the wealth. It's not necessary to engage the clutch in each gear, just rake through all the gates if you're not double clutching.

Ahh. I suppose that does make sense. I suppose I could at least pop it into an in between gear without releasing the clutch to help things along (or maybe this is a good excuse to practice double clutching so that I can say I'm good at it, lol.)
