I'm thinking something like a CVT (continuously variable transmission), no clutches/gearsets. Functions like a torque converter on snowmobile but totally enclosed linked metal "belt". Like a few modern small cars. I raced a Honda Odyssey buggy a while back with essentially the same TC as a snomobile or the Rokon. You just hammer it and let the thing work. Problem was belt slippage, overheating, etc.
