    No dude i have a degree in professional driving and safety, i race cars and drive 72 ft trucks thru half of the year and i know double clutching is recommended on certain types of vehicles to preserve the functions of the tranny and clutch. My dd's clutch is going bad, im finding a way to keep its life w/ out throwing money i dont need to on it. I dont know if double clutching would be good or bad for my dd. No im not like you watching a MOVIE on tuning cars and thinking im a F and F racer. Keep your lil jokes off thread please thanks.

    lol dont get all pissy. Seriously, double clutching isn't going to do much(if anything) for your car. It's really unnecessary for your average vehicle.
