once i roll out of the pit in my race car I do not use the clutch for upshift or downshifting. In certain turns, long double apex increasing radius turns that need a 2nd downshift in them i will heel and toe to not unsettle the car mid turn. Most of our cars are not momentum cars, so the need to carry momentum is not there, its more important to slow down and get on the power early as with the tq we can get the car to rotate and get out quickly.

I tore down the jericho over winter and there was no wear indicated that needed servicing, while shifting like this will require upkeep, its what the transmissions were designed for.
