yes but what me and THC are saying is that its more abuse on the clutch because when the revs are higher than wanted and you let the clutch up, instead of forcing the car to slow down, its forcing the car to speed up, which in my mind would equal more wear only if you're still on the throttle when ...

ok, i didn't read all the back and forth about rev matching high or low, but here's the deal: standard rev match you blip and release the throttle. if you have revved a bit too high, the revs are free falling, no power is being made. the revs are already approaching your target on their own, already...

well that's very different from already being the 2nd car in line.

that pisses me off too. where i see it the most is at this particular light where 2 lanes open up to 3 a little before the light, and go back to 2 a little after the light. many times i'll be coming up in the newly opened right lane, heading to the red light to be the first car. then the 2nd car in ...

I mean, Ive definately timed it perfectly in the past, but how to do you expect to do this repeatedly? Guess that it might go into the next gear?
