Imp-powered three-wheel-drive four-wheeled hillclimber. The front chain runs forward alongside the gearbox to another sprocket and shaft, which then transmit power, via another chain, to the front diff, which originally lived inside the Imp box but now enjoys a detached existence in a custom made residence of its own.

Ouch. Yeah, on the full clip you can see him working the throttle like crazy. Lucky it spun instead of capsizing.
