Is there any advantage/disadvantage to not using your clutch when you shift?
I will quite often just use the clutch only when I'm stopping-that is getting in/out of 1st gear.
I figure as long I'm shifting smoothly and using the synchros properly it would actually extend the life of my clutch.
My dad taught me how to shift w/o the clutch in high school but no-one has ever told me if it's a good/bad idea......
