Got some news Shepard went 8.10@175ish WITH A 200 SHOT OF N2O, this was with a 5-speed!!!!!!! ******* FAST

A dog box has no clutch....

Shep is using a a dog box and the last I heard he was still shifting using the clutch. So yes, he is the fastest manualy shifted car.

Any manual gearbox still requires a clutch.

That doesnt mean you still use it when shifting. Like motorbike gearboxes, which are also dog engagement, you do not need to use the clutch when shifting up gears. You do use it when shifting down though.

A dog box is designed for flat upshifts.
