when you rev-match properly, when you release the clutch, you wont hear any RPM change in the engine, correct? I want to learn how to do it. It would be awesome to be good at, like touch typing i guess... the more u practice, the easier it becomes.
i went several weeks without the use of a clutch a few years back, and learned quite well the technique of rev matching... it was dificult at first, but as i needed to continue to drive, i had learned it quite well.

doing so will prolong the life of your transmission components.

when i first started rev matching for upshifts, and downshifts... i began to pay attention to what velocity i was traveling at the corresponding rpm in each gear. once you have this down, the rest is just the body mechanics of having your hand/foot/eye coordination down.

hope that helps, hemi_fan i, for one love the car you got
