Default Thank you!

Not big on computers, so I don't log in often. When I need help I go online to the forums and someone has posted what I need. So far I've done oil sensor, columm lock bypass, headlight gears, tire pressure sensors.I fixed my ABS contraction control light, and today I rebuilt the ignition.All thanks to the corvette Forum and the people who post on it. I really appriciate your help! You saved me lots of money! But the best post I ever read was the guy who said it doesn't matter what gear you're in, if you mash the gas to the floor , it's guarented to put a smile on your face! Thanks again!

i came to this Forum (C-5) a few years ago, I was expecting that the most that I would learn is how best to wax and polish my '01Z. I had been on the C-2 Forum for years and they had helped me through all of my different rebuilds, rewires and break downs.
The C-5 group has been even more help, my knowledge was from '66 and I needed to catch up with the '01. This place has the people that are willing to pass it on. Thank you!

You're right, the forum is a wealth of info and the really good thing is the people are willing to share that knowledge freely.
