hence the fact that i could cause my clutch delaminated.
no clutch plus clutch pedal = starting my car in gear

if you know how to double clutch properly, you wont grind your gears. there are particular rpms at particular speeds when you can simply slide the shifter into gear without incident. and theres little tricks that make it easier. it still isnt all that great for the tranny, but if you gotta do it, you gotta do it. you may notice that you can pull out of gear w/o using the clutch, basically when shifting up, u pull out of gear, and wait for the right rpm for the next gear to line up with ur speed (rev matching) and then it just slides in no problem, with down shifts, you pull out of gear, rev up to the match point, and slide in... it really isnt hard with a little practice.

*EDIT* my dad once told me he did this with his chevelle, just cause he could... lol
