Default Dropping clutch while shifting through the gears

I know dropping clutch while launching is bad, how about dropping clutch while shifting through the gears?
I've dropped the clutch while shifting from 1-2 2-3 3-4 etc. and you will get this violent jerk, especially in the lower gears. I dont know if this is bad for the car or normal.
I've also read some ppl GRADUALLY increase the speed they let go of the clutch as they go from gears 1-6. I've experimented with this too and feels alot smoother.

If youre trying to get that 0-60 time, which is the correct way to do it?

I seem to remember reading something about this being the reason Honda added a Clutch Delay Valve to the AP2. People doing this were blowing their diffs out.


This is only something I remember reading from some place on the internet, I wouldn't trust them or me.
