Not the ideal solution, but very small and simple. I'm exactly the kind of nut who designs stuff like this in his spare time. I've been working on my own automatic transmission without the use of mindstorm parts for awhile now. Getting there...

It's just an idea that seems like it would lend itself to Lego very nicely, but of course, it doesn't, as they're engineered to such insane tolerances and use parts that Lego hasn't seen fit to produce. Some of the contortions that are gone through in order to reproduce something that a Lego car would have no worries about (power transfer to compensate for loss of traction) are interesting all by themselves.
