Battery question

I have my 98 corvette in the car show this weekend. The car show people had me disconnect the battery in my car. Will I end up having any problems by doing this since we are in the world of computer age cars? Thanks

with a factory radio you'll loose the clock setting and you'll have to re-sync the fobs. that's it

You may not loose any settings. My 98 runs down occasionally without any setting loss or fob resynch.

Not sure if the radio has Theft deterrent feature. We pull our cars out of the show tomorrow night so I will find out then.

That should be about all you have to worry about.
