Speed... There is a news article about your very ponderings however I cannot seem to find it for you. They said they tried scenes many many times to get things perfect. If I can find the article ill post it up.

I saw that video almost a month ago..badass..and a nightmare to create. 606 takes, and almost all because the wiper blades didn't fly through the air properly.

For that gay one who said tires can't defy gravity...they bend the rules by adjusting the weight inside the tires. The tires were adjusted with weights and some small devices which helped the weights shift as the tires rolled so that they would go uphill. Everything in that shot truly did that without any camera tricks or animation.



Much like that post from speed earlier, ray, bend reality around your vision and it shall be real.
