Default C6 Tricks

I just bought a new 08 Z51 LS3 that I'm about to convert to another T1 racer. I'm selling quite a few parts that will come off the car in about a month or two.

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show....php?t=1843651

I was wondering though, are there any tricks to the C6 that I don't know about? I mean, like my C5...Option x 2 then Fuel x 4 will let you see the codes and reset them; cycling the key will also clear the codes, but won't grind the starter, etc.

I think the early C6s had to be put in Reverse or the battery would die. I haven't seen anything in the book about that for the 08s. Anything else I need to know???

Thanks in advance!!

No tricks to speak of.

'06 and up does not need to be left in reverse and you can't see codes in the C6.
