right now im just ghetto double clutching it. i put it from 4th to neutral, then blip the accel and then downshifted to third. is that ok to do? felt kiiinda smooth but i need to work on it.
thats not double clutching. There's no need to double clutch in a modern car with synchros. Unless your synchro's go out.


That's how to rev-match your downshift though! good work! Now all you have to do is integrate that into a braking situation, and you are heel-toeing.
