I'm not sure that Toby is describing double clutching. Between the two gears, you actually let out the clutch while in neutral (double clutch). This is how old tranny's had to be shifted, before synchro's were put in there. I hesitate w/ the above statement because I don't understand mechanicaly why the double clutch motion works. Anyone?
