This is a simple concept, it's not something magical. You weight the top of the tire in such a way that the system enters into equilibrium. The friction between the tire and the ramp prevents it from sliding and the weight is positioned to prevent the tire from rolling either forward or backwards. When the tire it knocked, the weight is shifted to the front, momentum is generated, and the tire begins to roll up the ramp. Friggin' simple. Come on man...

Maybe it's the camera movement that is making it look fake to me. It's pretty cool to get something like that to work, but it still seems like a perfect definition of over kill. I don't really understand why someone would go through so much trouble to do something like that even when you could have used special effects to do the same and make it look just as real ...

WTF is so hard to understand about a weighted wheel rolling uphill. Tell ya what go find a POS tire and duct tape a 5 pound weight inside of it. place the tire with the weight straight up, balance it so it does not move at all. Then stick a Car ramp right next to it, but do not disturb the tire. then tap the tire enough to make it move. what will it do???? Roll up the frickin ramp!!!!
On another note this comm. was filmed over 606 takes, and the parts were all stripped from 2 of the 6 hand built accords in existence. to the horror of the Honda engineers. Nice job and major kudos to the film crew(s). I may be a domestic guy, but props to the honda people for this one. that shit rocked.

Tires will not move upwards in that angle of direction from any movement that was like 1 mph..... im sorry wont happen...

If you still don't understand: Ever been to Busch Gardens? Remember that ride the phoenix (pirate ship)? Remember how it would stop at the top temporarily because all the weight was located directly over the fulcrum, then it would inch forward, gradually picking up speed until it came swinging back down? Same thing at work here.
