Well hard too say Trev. I would be going way out on a limb if
I was to say it will make you faster. I have been in the habit
of clutch even for N2 because my shifter wouldn't work unless
I hit the clutch pedal.
In GPl, if I spin out (I do that a lot) I can get my foot on
the clutch and the rear wheels can then free-wheel enabling me
a better chance of getting the car under control again.
My clutches are varible so you can ride the clutch from a
stand still and get a better of the mark take off. You still
have high rpm's with minimal rear wheel spin.
