Ed, I heel and toe almost all corners, even in my street car (CTS V).
Why mismatch revs and clunk it into gear, when I can smoothly do it prior to the corner?
As for double-clutching (aka double declutching), I think that's good practice (for what I don't know) and may help wear on the synchros. I used to do it as habit, but gave up 10 years ago or so. But, who knows when you'll find yourself in a an unsynchronized Holman Moody car or pre-war MG or something? Or maybe your clutch goes out and you need to get home! (have to disconnect the neutral lock out).
Good to know at least.
