I also know what it is not, namely it is not needed for a modern day transmission when you downshift. Know what's funny? Professional racers don't double clutch, even in a 24 hour race. |

Sometimes I quadruple shift, and my dog teeth grow back.

If you double clutch downshifting from sixth to reverse, you'll unlock a hidden level.

Your dog teeth will last much longer if you brush and floss them regularly.

Now I see people commenting on here saying it's not necessary... Last time I tried rev matching, my shifter didn't go in correctly and started shaking until I moved it back into neutral clutch, blip throttle, move lever... yeah that didn't go quite as well as I thought I also like double clutching on the freeway when trying to pass someone, since I find it easier to just double clutch, rev up the RPM to the appropriate gear you want then just move the lever.

Double clutching:
It's a bit like buying a washer dryer machine and removing the clothes in between the wash and dry cycles. Because... that's what your granny used to do.
