I guess I worked at it for a week's work of driving before I didn't have to think about it.
At the end of the day it's not really that handy for performance driving, it's obviously more steps and takes a lot longer. It's just nice because it seems to be easier on the tranny.

Waste of time and energy. You'll never double clutch a synchro box as fast as the synchros can do it, unless they're worn.
Let the synchros do their job. They're very durable in these transmissions, and they're there to help ya.
