Introducing myself

[Murmur]

Hi everybody!

My name is Marco. I'm from Italy and I've been a cranking fan for as long as I remember.

My first memories are from my very early childhood (younger than 5 years old) in the early '80s, when my 3 female cousins gave me rides on their old yellow Fiat 500, and I was sitting in their laps. I remember the car was often hard to start, and I remember being aroused by that.

My original preferences were about women cranking any type of car or scooter.
During the years, my preferences evolved. I still like to see a woman cranking a car or a scooter, but nowadays, my preference is to see a woman dealing with carbureted european cars from the '80s, with the cold car being hard to start and stalling a lot.

My perfect scenario is a woman that is alone (or riding with an imaginary passenger, if it's a video) having difficulties starting her cold car and having it repeatedly sputter and stall.

My favourite cars are (more or less in this order): Fiat Uno, Fiat Panda, Ford Fiesta MK1 or 2, Renault 5, Opel Corsa A, and other '80s european carbureted city cars. The more the engine is teasing and sputtery when cold, the better. I don't like fuel injected cars, seeing cranking in them does almost nothing for me.

As most of you, I thought I was the only one in the world with this fetish until 2003, when I discovered there were many websites devoted to women "pedal pumping" and cranking cars. Needless to say, discovering that has been one of the most significant days in my life.

In the years, I spent thousands of Euros to buy cranking and pedal pumping clips. Currently, I have nearly 9000 cranking videos for a size of more than 450 GB. In the last years, I also often searched online (in forums etc.) to find women describing their car troubles, and many times I pretended to be a woman having car trouble and asking for advice to other women having experience with hard starting cars.

I never managed to film candid videos, but I managed to record candid audio files of two different women dealing with their old cars (a Fiat Uno and a Fiat Panda). No extended cranking, just some cold stalling, sputtering, and some hard starting in a couple of occasions.

I'm not interested in the pedal pumping aspect per se. What is important for me, is that the video must appear as realistic and candid as possible. It's the frustration and insistence of the woman dealing with a hard starting and teasing car that arouses me. I like a lot those unusual camera angles such as exhaust view, over the windshield view, external views, etc. I also like when a video begins with the woman getting ready to go, walking toward the car, etc. In my opinion, it helps a lot to build anticipation and increase realism.

My favourite websites are:

CrankAndPump (I think Nicole is the best cranking model ever. I find her videos among the most candid-like and realistic).
SessanLady/MissLadyPumpkin/LadyCerise/ThePedalStore (As you can deduce from the above descriptions, their videos perfectly fit my ideal fantasy).
PedalPumpingDreams/HardStarting (Kimmy and Kelly. Their videos are also very similar to my perfect scenario).
Sexydriving (same as above).

I also like some videos from PedalSupreme, Hayleigh, PedalTube (now Clips4Coins) and PumpThatPedal.

Well, that's all.

Hi there, welcome to the forum! I vaguely recognise your username from some time ago (I'm aware you're on the CCC forum now but that's not what I'm thinking of), were you a member of Hayleigh's forum a while back? There were a few people on there I lost contact with due to its sudden closure. If one of them was you, it's good to hear from you again, if not please ignore me!

It's always nice to see someone else who is into 'PP' not for the pedal pumping aspect itself, but explicitly for the car trouble concept. That's not to say I have anything against the foot fans at all, but it's gratifying to see others that appreciate the experience the same way you do - I'm guessing you have found the same. Likewise, a 'realistic story driven' video - i.e. one without an over-the-top plot but one that tracks the journey of a model from before the point she's already in the vehicle, is definitely high on my list of desirables for a pedal pumping feature too.

For what it's worth, my PP folder is currently 1.43TB from 43,000 files, some of which are images, but not many. Around 80GB of that is stuff saved from youtube. Somehow the 'sexy driving' channel escaped me, I'll definitely have to look into getting some of their clips

Thank you CrankieMonster. Yes, I was a member of Hayleigh forums and I also wrote a multimedial cranking story there too, involving a mother and her son. Then after a few days the forum was closed. I hope it was not because of my story!

I had a read at some threads here, and I find this forum very welcoming and nice (apparently more than others...).

I highly doubt it was because of that - If memory serves correctly, Hayleigh and her partner were having some issues in their personal lives where the PP subject was being used against them so had to hastily shut down not just the forum but the Clips4sale as well. From my brief contacts with them subsequently I believed that to be still ongoing but given the opening of another clips4sale store, perhaps the matter has been resolved. It was a shame to lose some of the good creative writing on there - much of that was what inspired me to start my own stories on here. I managed to save the stories that were posted by a user on PumpThatPedal's US forum before it shut down but didn't achieve the same with Hayleigh's unfortunately.

Thanks for the compliment - that has always been the idea here, we've had very minimal troublesome posts to deal with here anyway, but I suspect that the fact that the forum is actually monitored by staff unlike some others means people are less inclined to join here to start trouble, who knows. Either way I'm pretty happy with the userbase we have here. PP is never going to create a huge hive of activity like some forums due to the relatively small number of interested parties but I think we've done pretty well here so far.

Welcome to the forum. I've not been here long myself but am happy to have found it.

I too recognise your username from other places. I too was on Hayleigh's forum as well as Kimmy's a long time ago. Like you I am also more interested in the struggle to start than the feet aspect of pp. The frustration of finally starting only to stall again is also what I like to see. I also want realism from a clip and the walk up, get in and get ready is an important part of a good video. I have very rigid tastes with regards to the woman's footwear - only stiletto pumps or boots interest me. I am not into flats, sandles or mules but that's just my thing. Everyone has their own tastes I guess. I'm not too fussy with regards to cars but small 80's european vehicles are what I can relate the fetish to best. I have been lucky enough to witness girls struggle with a triumph herald (that was a really old car by then) vauxhall chevette, mg midget and fiat uno amongst others.
