Alot of you are missing the point. When you have a car producing more hp than stock it is essential to use tools like double clutching so you wont be doing a tranny rebuild every week. especially on high hp cars that sees alot of track time. all about the moolah but you are right in a stock car that isnt known for tranny issues or weak synchros its not necessary to double clutch except imo cable trannys. recap folks- alot of horsepower + not double clutching = f'd up tranny.

Why would you double clutch on a WRX with a stock transmission?

Let the synchros work the transmission can easily handle it with very little wear if you rev match properly.

If it were a Vintage race then i would make sense but this is unnecessary and a waste of time in this car.

You are an idiot. WRX trannies are known for having the same characteristics as a grenade. Only good usdm trans is the STi 6mt. 02-04 WRX trans is identical to the 2.5RS trans and the ones after that aren't that much stronger.

Everything only takes so much abuse. WRX's don't exactly have bulletproof racing trannies in them.

Double clutching is needed on many race cars which have unsynchronized transmissions.
