Default Double clutch??

Damn!! Me and my friend ran our cars last night. He has a 95 civic DX and he kicked the shit out of me. wned: . His car was stock, exept for a short ram intake. How the hell is that possible?? :wtf: And the thing is he had 2 people in his car while i ony had 1 in mine. My friend said he was double-clutching?? How is it that you double clutch?? My starting time sucked too, I peeled out for like 2 or 3 seconds, I tried doing some of the suggestions that people posted, but I guess I just need to practice that.

well, work on your launch. getting a good start, then you can usually have an easy race from there on. dont shift too early, dont shift too far past the redline either. i remember seeing something with ideal shift points for different cars. meh.

I was under the impression that double clutching doesn't help in a straight line :dunno:



maybe you just suck at driving.
