The launch control mode is :tits: , I can only imagine what it's like in :waxer: 911 with a PDK
CTR should have been in the low 5's to 60. But that's a manual trans FWD vs automatic AWD with launch control for you.

The CTR didn't do well, I think there was some surface issue (cold and wet?), those are the realities. I'm actually more surprised that the AMG A35 didn't do better. It is in my radar as an interesting future DD

I'd love one TBH but the whole idea here is fun affordable DD that gets the kids to school, groceries/ the odd dish washer picked up. GTR is a whole different animal.

Thats what i did. My old personal instagram that i deleted used to be a blend of car pics, travel, and moi. I usually got the least likes on my car :sad: I pretty much stopped doing that on my current juan and opened a car gram at one point.

Just like people making their cats and dogs insta.

I'm kind of curious to figure out how people get thousands of followers. If it is a slow aggregate growth thing then it seems like a lot of work. I started it a month ago and the follower growth is tapering off. The most successful mother fuckers have hot chicks, and good content. When it gets warmer I'll get some hot chicks to pose with the car and see what it does to the stats. Besides that it's getting a little boring.

it took me a while for mine, hastags help, look at mine and it'll definitely grow, i get random followers from other GTI, VW owners and mustang, caddy bros (like the one i sent you on dm with the ATS gayges). Also I have became more consistent for the last few months and you'd be surprised how far I went up, I also have some few pics reserved, so I'm prepared if i couldnt find new content right off the bat.

I think consistency of post is your best bet, I have noticed it from my friends who became like fake models and have instagram bf's, they keep posting pics that they had from their vacations a few months back.
