Lately i have been hearing about being able to shift gears with out using the clutch, there is a certin rpm or somethin u can do it at. when i first heard this, i said bull**** and didn't think about it, but i've heard 2-3 more people mention this, anyone heard anything about it, is it possible with our cars?

what about down shifting...my friend has been showing me this all week.

you push the clutch in...get the car into nutral .. rev..go into gear.

You put the clutch in again to move the car from neutral into the lower gear though, right?

I do that sometimes...I really need to learn to heel-toe brake once I can get a wider gas pedal.

i practise heel toe in my wrx, pedals are good for it, except i just move my foot over and hit both pedals, i cant actually use my heel and toe, lol

it really does make a huge difference.
