Also... yes, there are good reasons to double clutch. This has been debated a million times though, so I don't really want to get into it again. Let's just say that it's a matter of personal opinion (but mine is right... LOL).
Congrats on your driving abilities, you sound pretty good. I agree there is no reason to debate this as it has been debated a lot before. The results from those debates are that theoretically it can slightly prolong life in a transmission, however, has no benefit for performance or real reason to be performed in a modern synchronized transmission. Lots of F&F kids will think its cool though! Enjoy your opinion (it's wrong.....LOL)
