You don't really need to on the way up, but it doesn't hurt anything. If you're not using a quick shifter though, you'll still need to drop the throttle. I can hear it revving on ur shifts

One of my vids of a couple sessions in the afternoon. My front camera had issues so I only have the rear facing forward.

I use clutch when shift , why should I drop the throttle then ?No quickshifter on my bike . I even run safety pin on my chain instead of rivet ,is it wrong ?

Just a suggestion, thats all
smoother shifting and you wont be reving up and down so hard every time u shift
Doesn't hurt anything either way

Like Joe said, clutch less upshifts are not imperative. Though doing it can help you upshift a bit quicker and create less wear on the clutch. Also if you are not dropping revs when you shift up, you may be doing a bit more wear to the clutch. Again, this is a minor thing, but once you start using clutch less upshifts at the track you probably won't go back. FWIW, I do use the clutch for upshifts on the street, just not on the track.
I'm planning to race. I still have to get the bike wired up and buy my license, but I should be out there. How about you, are you back now, or still over in Europe?
don't really get it but ok. see above, it will be a while
thought i'd mention what every other person has told me about that
but don't take it from me, i'm not very fast

but I touched the ground once, that counts for something doesn't it?
Slo was quick, don't think I've seen him out there in a couple years now

Found some useable footage off my front camera. Narrow field of view but it works.
