Posting a thread

Here you go! You have found something, and want to share the information with the rest of us. Great! Lets get started.

Step 1:

You must search for the subject before wasting your time.
Instructions on how to do that can be found here...

Step 2:

Lets make a thread. First you want to find the proper forum. Get yourself to the forums and view your options. Lets say we found something new in Forced Induction for the camaro.

Obviously this has something to do with the engine. So we will be looking under, "Engine l Drivetrain l Powertrain technical discussions". Since we want to start a thread about forced induction for the V6 We will select, "Forced induction for V6 and V8" See below.

Now that we have found the proper sub-forum to post our new thread, we need to select the "New Thread" button at the top of the page as shown in the pic below...

1. You must give your thread a Title. Name it whatever you want. But make sure that everyone can understand what your thread is about just by reading this title.

2. These buttons will help you make a clean and organized thread. How to use these buttons is posted here...

3. This is the text box. You type your information in here. If you need help with this part, then see instructions here...

4. Tags!!! Rarely used, but if you want your thread to be found easier in future searches, then you want to add a few important words from your subject into this box. Makes this a million times easier for others to find your thread.

5. And finally you can create a poll for this thread.
