I’ve seen the inside of the car in a different video. Reversing I believe takes a while since it’s a sequential automatic transmission so he has to dial back a few gears manually using a lever before he can reverse

This car competed in the ARC component of the WRC up at Coffs Harbour a few years back, the mechanics from one of the factory teams saw it and came over to ask questions about it. They had never seen a car like it and laughed at the crazy horsepower as you can't use it all on the gravel but loved it!
