my mate who rally's a mini does it, he will invariably change from 4th to 1st by double clutching, whilst heel-toeing on the brake and go fast pedal to bring the engine up to speed to drop into 1st
it sounds as complicated as it is im sure, id never want to try it let alone hope to ever manage it

i don't see the point in doing clutch twice, maybe using accelerator when clutch is depressed to help raise/match rev's

I've driven an old bus that needed to be double clutched.

Had to for a month or so, till my gear box sorted itself out. The car thought there was no fith gear due to me changing from 4th to 6th all the time.
Very strange fault apparently happens to all S2000's if you change gear his way :S
Basically had to double clutch from forth to fifth, but really hit it hard into fifth till the gear box was reminded that the gear was there  fucking jap shit.
