Thank you, I hope I can get the hang of this. Not real good with forums. But I will get familiar with it.

Welcome to the Forum, James, and congratulations on your C5 Z06!
Navigating the site gets easier with time. Also, for many searches, try typing the subject into google or whatever search engine you use and add Corvette Forum to the subject line. Often this will have the search engine focus on forum questions/answers first. And if nothing else works, just pose your question in the appropriate spot (C5 General, C5 Tech, etc).

Jim - welcome to the forum. In the Help Section (https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums/help-forum-31/), there are a number of tutorials which explain the various functions on the forum. They are in the Sticky threads located at the top of the first page. Take a look at them and if you still have questions, you can post in the Help Section, post in the C5 General section if they relate to questions on the car or contact a Moderator/Administrator for assistance.

Welcome. I must confess I'm a bit envious—the C5 Z06 was the model that really made me fall in love with Corvettes, and blue is my favorite color on them! Enjoy your beautiful Vette.
