what exactly does it mean?

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_declutch

amazing what you can find on google

 

It's what you do when all your syncs have gone.

 

iirc it's an old technique from before we had synchromesh. It's where you dip the clutch and disengage the gear, bring the clutch up and the depress it again to select the next gear.

I had to do it on a 30+ year old Bedford horse box. Was fookin scary I can tell you.

 

used when a synchromesh is excessively worn or your driving a dog engagement box slowly.

 

for gearboxes with no syncros

basically; dip the clutch to get it out of gear; dip the clutch again before engaging next gear

its basically to allign engine & transmission speeds

 

Also handy for downshifting from say 5th to second hard on the brakes when you dont want to upset the balance with a big lurch, toe and heel and double clutch....

 

This is why me and the mad scientist got to pull apart the engine and replace the piston rings you fried.

 

clears it up cheers. thought it was somthing similar to this

 

interesting was woundering what it was myself
different people interprit double clutching different ways
i was also told is good to stop the lag off the turbo????
but i perfer to tap the accelerator on downshift to beat the lag

 

Yeah but you will blow the welds on the intake that way.

 

what lag monster of a car do you have then?

 

onli pushing 6 psi :S so i doubt it does much damage lol
think i need more boost haha

 

The sequence goes;-

Dip clutch, shift gear into neutral
Lift clutch, tap throttle ( this spins up the layshaft to match the revs with the next gear )
Dip clutch, Shift into gear, Lift clutch

 

tis lol stage 3 blower with 6 psi
neeed a boost gauge fitting bad to have a play lol

 

thats what i thought it was wen first was told bout double clutching not the double tap of the gas pedal thata few other dodgy people have told me

 

Useful on old landrovers, and if you live in hollywood (but nowhere else) also in drag racing

 

It works though.

Ask any racer, any real racer, it doesnt matter if u win by an inch or a mile, winning's winning.

 

I nearly had you though....

 

any thin to win even if the car dies
an stop quoteing fast and furious lines

 

You never had me, you never had your car.

 

lmao

 

I smell.....skanks...

Am glad someones onto it.

 

Not for racing in anything made after about 1950 it doesnt

People confuse heal and toe with double clutching, including the makers of the fast and furious it would seem

 

I live my life a quarter pounder at a time. And for those 500 calories
or more, I'm free

I need FRIIIIIIESSSSSS! 2 of them, the big ones. Oh, and I need them
tonight!!

AMATURES DONT SUPER SIZE! I'VE SEEN HOW YOU EAT!!! YOU'VE GOT A BIG
MOUTH!! YOU'LL BLOW YOURSELF
UP!

What's the retail on one of those?? More than you can afford pal, a 6
dollar burger!

You're lucky the double shot of bbq sauce didn't blow a seam on your
nugget box!!!

Whoa! There she is, 2 pounds of pure MickeyD's beef. My dad ate it in
9.9 seconds. There was so much special
sauce, the juices actually dripped onto his chin coming off the line.
What's your time? I haven't tasted her. She scares the crap outta me.

My grill topped out at 140 degrees, I need more charcoal, 2 bags, the
big ones

So what're you eatin?! Oh you gonna make me look under the bun and find
out?? You're brave.

It's not how you stand by your burger, it's how you EAT your burger.

Bull shi ass hole! no one likes the McTuna sandwhich around here!

You almost had me?...you never had me, you never had your burger. your
granny-biting, not chomping like you should!!!

Now me and Ronald McDonald here are gonna have to rip open the counter,
and replace the ONION RINGS YOU
FRIED.

You know you owe me a 10 pack of nuggets. ooh. Ouch!

Don't do it! I'll bet he's got at least a triple cheeseburger under that
bun!

When you gonna give me a shot at that double quarter pounder of yours?

Torretto's got ketchup in his veins and an all beef patty for a brain.

They opened my bag. Disrespected my fries. All becuase someone narked me
out! AND YOU KNOW WHAT!! IT
WAS RONALD!!!

I thought we had an understanding? You stay on your side of the
play-place, I stay on mine.


Bryan - "Welcome to Mcdonald's, may I take your order?"
Hector - "Yeah, I made a list. I want 3 of everything."

Pop the bun.
Pop the bun?


that is one hell of a way to spend $.10

Bryan-He was in MY shake!
Dom - Now I'm in your shake!


I bet a couple of 1/2 pound patties would pull a premium three days
before Taste Wars wouldn't they?

Check it out it's like this. If I lose, winner takes my happy meal. But
If I win, I take the burger AND the TOY. To
some people thats more important.

Whats better than the lines is the EVOVII in the 2nd one, that has 30 odd gears.
A large portion of which seem to be reverse gears.
