Do you double clutch shift

I don’t think OP is talking about just heel-toe, but double clutching specifically. I don’t use the SRM, that much, but even when I do, I double clutch on the downshifts. In my mind, it spares the synchros a little. Much cheaper to replace a clutch than synchros.

Correct, I was referring to double clutch specifically not just heal-toe. I'll most likely be getting a base model so rev-matching isn't available. Either way, I read that double clutching will be easier on the syncros for both up-shift and down-shift.
