Noobish question about transverse LMP and GT gearboxes
I've wondered for a while about how transverse gearboxes work on MR and FR GT and LMP cars. I know that XTrac. Ricardo and Hewland make primarily transverse gearboxes for LMPs and GTE/GTLM and GT3/GTD cars.

My big question is how does the internal layout of a transverse LMP or GT gearbox. Namely, how the input shaft drives the transmission and diff clusters? Could someone help me visualize how this layout works in these applications?
