great models and physics and video!
when i was a kid one of the best parts of building a car was crashing it afterwards
(i hope that wasn't just me)
Thanks,Only after making the video I recalled the many afternoons I spent when I was a kid
building ramps and watching my big collection of cars going down, hoping for my favorite to win ... -
Great Job! Pretty good with the video production as well.

If my math teachers were ever that imaginative... I love the video, and the car design is also lovely. It's a bit choppy but that's a minor issue. Well done!

JHuman and Huggkruka,
thanks for your comments.
I'll be soon uploading a new sped up version, as suggested in various comments.
I've already sped it up and it is actually much better
(For some reason I didnt thought about it immediately).About imagination:
I just started by thinking that Sketchup is easy, fun and 3D and that therefore
it was a good tool for studying and visualizing solids in school.
Then the students loved it and the ideas grew up. -
This is the new version: sped up as suggested in the comments
I think it is actually much better, thanks.[flash=510,412:112x0jli]http://www.youtube.com/v/Ni6TDPpKqw4&hl=en&fs=1[/flash:112x0jli]
(You may watch it in HD on youtube).

Not strictly related to the video above but, I used sketchyphysics
to add a motor and a working steering system to the blue convertible:[flash=510,412:70u7boel]http://www.youtube.com/v/aDznlx7bufs&hl=en&fs=1[/flash:70u7boel]

I coudln't resist and I made the students' cars work inside Google Earth.
I did not write the code (it was written by someone at Google),
I only changed it to make it work with the students cars.Accept to install the plugin if required, it's great fun ...
Drive your car in Google Earth
hope you like it.
