So Petra also has to deal with the Bug in the same spot that Hana originally got it stuck on a snowy day and Tinsley eventually got it out. The ground hasn’t dried completely and when Petra finally tries to start moving, it doesn’t take long or much effort to have her wheels spinning. She first has to battle for a few minutes to get the car started and then has to get situated with the Bug’s stick shift.

The audio cutting out is due to mic jack coming loose during filming. The audio cuts out intermittently between the 6:00 minute and 9:00 minute mark. Sorry about that. 🙁
Petra Mixed In The Super-Beetle / Tan Boots/ Clip 1 Of 2
Petra is going to try getting the bug on the driveway its parked besides the bushes that and it hasn’t been started for a wile. Petra is wearing a violent long sleeve sweater, black leather gloves, blue jeans, tan boots, Petra gets in the bug she has a little trouble getting her left foot on the clutch she has to try about three times before shes able to press the clutch all the way down she says’ wore the wrong pair of shoes.”
Petra goes right into cranking and pumping the gas pedal shes not afraid to pump the gas pedal shes pumping it really good the engine doesn’t sputter at all as shes cranking and pumping, at about the 1 min 24 sec mark the audio cuts out a little bit the Mic jack on Shish’s camcorder might have come lose a little bit the audio stops cutting out after about 30 or 40 seconds.
Shish is using a camcorder hes getting whole body shots as Petra is cranking and pumping he even gets some video of the exhaust as Petra keeps trying to get the bug to start, it takes her close to 4:00 minutes to get the bug to start, a couple of times when Petra would get the engine to start by accident she would ride the starter a little bit after starting the engine she does this a couple of times.
Now that Petra has the engine running she warms it up really good she gives the engine a really good revving for close to 2:00 minutes now that the engine is warmed up Shish gets in the bug now Petra has to back the bug up on the driveway this is not as easy as it sounds as Tinsley and Hana found out the hard way. Petra had a little trouble getting the gearshift in reverse when she thought she had the gearshift in reverse the bug would roll forward a little bit after about eight or nine attempts to get the gearshift in reverse she finally gets it in reverse.
When Petra tries to back up on the driveway the bug is not really stuck per-se Petra has to floor it really good if you look at the windows on the drivers side you see smoke coming from the tires the engine stalls a couple of times the bug rolls forward at least two or three times when Petra starts the engine she doesn’t like the sound it was making this startles her a little bit she shuts off the engine and restarts it she tries to backup on the driveway again.
As Petra is backing up on the driveway she has the tires spinning so fast you can hear the reverse gear whirl as shes trying to get on the driveway.
As the PTP logo pops up on the screen Petra is still trying to get the bug on the driveway shes almost there. What will clip two bring us?? Will Petra then take the bug out for a drive?? Although Petra was a little nervous and maybe a little bit afraid of braking something on the bug she kept trying.
We will have to wait and see what happens in clip two until then pleasant dreams. 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
P.S Shish don’t worry about the audio cutting out the clip turned out just fine.:D 😀
