It's there for a reason. This is as dumb as starting a car by pushing it and dropping the clutch, completely neglecting the fact that you have a starter.

Remind me never to drive behind you. I hate when I'm showered with bits of transmission.

funny... i know alot of older people who acutaly drive like this all the time, if your not grinding it when you do it i dont see how it can hurt it. I tried it for about a week and i was like ahhh clutch is more fun... i do pull it out of gear when coming to a stop without the clutch though

putting into nuetral without the clutch is not the same as shifting gears without the clutch.
