I do that daily driving, once you get the hang of it, it becomes second nature.

Default Nice for those who are rightly confused by the term.

Took me a good 6 months of driving to really get it down, now it's second nature and the only way I drive.

I'd been shifting motorcycles and cars for years and never paid enough attention to rev matching... bonehead I am.

I guess I never really understood the purpose of it. Rev matching I guess?

Default Exactly.

You want to be in the right gear before entering a corner and you don't want to unbalance the car to get there. It's about being smooooth.

Default def. something i need to work on. double-clutch is a no-brainer for me. H-T, not so much! :*(

of course, it didn't help that one of my first instructors, Larry Boyer, told me on modern gear-boxes, just let the synchros do their job! ;-)
