Transmission!!???!!! HELP!!!

Ok ... stupid question but can you explain double clutching ? Its one of those vague terms like "3/4 race cam"

Google it/ youtube. Simply, it's matchin gear RPMs so the gearbox meshes. When you are in "say" first, revved up, getting ready to shift into second, the gears are all going some speed. You push in the clutch, let off the gas, the engine RPM drops. If this was a crashbox going into second, there is no synchro to macth the proper RPM of the changing gears. So they will only mesh when the falling RPM of the now de-clutched input gear/ cluster passes through the RPM window "of what 2nd gear" would be rotating. So if you, while IN NEUTRAL, let the clutch pedal back out, this transfers some of the engine RPM back into the input gear/ cluster of the gearbox, speeding it back up a bit. You have to LEARN what this "is". You have to learn to do this so the RPM comes out "right."

Then, you push the clutch back in, and "before" the RPM can change much--again--you engange 2nd. All you are doing is matching RPM to the gear changes

I'm sure we've all done the same thing "sort of" in an all synchro box. You want to "get on it" going uphill, and want to gear down. So you pull it out of 4th, say, and blip the throttle while shifting down into 3rd. This "helps" the synchros so they don't have to work so hard. Only difference with a "crashbox" is that there ARE no synchros--you are matching gearspeed and it has to be more exact
