Powershifting the way I understood it was you keep your foot on the floor and all you do is mash it into the next gear.

Wierd because I always heard it like Ian said, where you shift at WOT while fully but quickly slamming the clutch to the floor and releasing.

There are a few mustangs that I would drive but none that I'd actually pay for.

What is double clutching?

"Granny Shifting, Not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that 100 shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake manifold"----Vin Diesel F&TF.

Double clutching, as I understand it is hitting the clutch petal real quick to get the car into neutral, and then hitting the petal real quick again to get into the next gear. Seems more time consuming to me and slows down your ET. I'd rather just have to hit the clutch once and shift into the next gear.

A perfect example of double clutching is if you watch the chase seen from the movie bullet. Very Happy

You know, I' never thought about it before, but McQueen does always double-clutch it, especially after he gets out of the city. The other guy always single clutches, but he shifts pretty fast.

BTW, in case your wondering, it is up on YouTube:
