Ya, im happy with it - its just that after first gear, im runnin for my life cause he puts out more power than me during second - i'd use the jump i got in first, carry most of it through second and then double clutch and loose everything (since im not to great at double clutchin - rpms drop from 8k to 6k) in third.
He said he could tell when i was in Vtec since he couldnt make mutch headway on me in second.

Double clutching? That's a downshifting method... why not just shift normally?
