Yeah, I've never figured out the search function here. I gives me all the THREADS that the phrase appears on- usually a couple hundred that I need to read the entire thread to find what i want

choose advanced search: https://www.pro-touring.com/forum/search.php
on the bottom left is a check box for "show results as threads or show results as posts. Select posts, the individual posts with the search terms in it will appear.
I don't know how to make it search for an exact match, I would think you'd put the term in quotes or brackets, but I haven't found anything that works, it seems to search for each individual word.
Here is how to make google search for forum threads
