1. Racing is pretty hard on a car no matter how you do it, so not too much more.
2. Yes, it makes a huge difference, you'll see the first time you do it.
3. Yes.
4. It all depends on the individual.

people have to learn sometime, we're not born seasoned drag racers. i'm sure that at some point in time you didn't know what it was either, or how to do it.

Double clutching is just what it sounds like, using the clutch twice to change gears and as PSI Chick already said, it was only necessary way back when before the manual transmissions had synchronizers.
