I said fantasising not fanaticising.
There is a difference, fool.
You don't have fans; I don't want them.

I don't see why? The desired effect of double de-clutching is to match
the engine speed to the gear about to be selected. Double de-clutching
when changing up could be defined as: into neutral - increase revs -
into gear; which is certainly a rather more difficult technique to
master than changing down, which is simply: into neutral - revs drop -
into gear (although the option is always there for: into neutral - brake
- into gear). However, in a large vehicle without synchromesh, it
remains an essential skill, especially in situations where the driver
wishes to skip a gear, surely?
