Yeah, as others have said. A great bit of knowledge/skill to have in case something happens to your clutch. I think I put about 50-75 miles on my old 911 driving without the clutch when the slave cyl went out and the clutch broke, but I don't think that you are saving yourself any money by shifting without the clutch when everything is working correctly. I can do it in my miata, I've done it in my old '65 Impala, etc... But doing it regularly is just asking for expensive trouble.
