srm won't shave off time for an experienced driver... benefits are big for more novice drivers and I'd believe saving a second or two there b/c it allows you to drop a gear in a turn and be ready to accelerate out of a turn as opposed to waiting/coasting... for experienced driver that can safely downshift in a turn using heel-toe to rev match, there is always the risk of fowling up a heel-toe, which could mean losing control of the car... srm eliminates that risk... all in all, srm is a nice option to have regardless of skill level
