Exclamation Help double clutching….

Can someone tell me how you would go about double clutching when you’re racing? I am a great driver and love to go fast, but all of my friends tell me take if I learned how to double clutch, I would be even better at what I do. I am not sure about what to do and how fast you would have to do it to not lose speed.

So any help would be nice, thanks

Let me guess your still granny shifting not double clutching like you should, your lucky the nos didnt blow the welds off the intake, so now me and the mad scientist have to tear apart the block and replace the piston rings you fried.

Ha ha ha, you’re funny. See now the only different between the movie and real life, is that I would really whop your ass in an street race. Now I don’t see myself granny shifting, like I would know what it is, but I don’t go threw clutches like some people I know who say they know how to double clutch and stuff. That is why I came here.

This thread could get historical. Unfortunately he's a trial member and can only post 5 times a day.

Double-clutching:

Clutch in - shift out of gear to neutral - clutch out - clutch in - shift into gear from neutral - clutch out.

There's no need to double-clutch in any modern car. Maybe your friends are thinking about heel-toe. Now that's something completely different.

You havent even stated what you drive yet. Do you have a domestic that needs "double clutching" or do you drive a crx.

wait your statement makes no sense c-rex...You dont go through clutches like some people you know who do double clutch? Meaning their clutches wear out faster. You want that because....? Your friends have watched too much F&F, trust me.
