[edit] Illustration needed
This passage begs for an illustration:
- The final drive has two pulleys with moveable conical drums. The distance between the drums is controlled by the engine vacuum in the inlet manifold and engine RPM, through centrifugal weights inside the drums. Between the two pulleys runs a drive belt. As a result of change in the distance of the conical drums in both pulleys, the diameters and so also the reduction ratio changes continuously.

[edit] F1
As far as I know, this car was never allowed on the track. It is now residing at the Van Doorne Transmissie (VDT) factory.
