I couldn't get the double clutching timing right, and my instructor was a cunt who got on my nerves the whole day of training. Also because they're a gated gearbox, you're supposed to follow the H pattern and not cut desire paths.

@SaneMartigan @gnu
I was brought up on track driving and old 911s — they demand a certain driving style: rev-matching, always keeping the revs up. That eliminated the need for double clutching.

In Australia, you've got to show double clutching to pass the non-synchronised driving test.
