What you are thinking of is called a" torque converter", this is the same system that all snowmobiles use. Way back there were a few minibike brands that used them, probably the better of them were the Rupp minibikes. You can probably still buy those systems from "Comet" they manufacture all sorts of drive systems, just do a search for comet clutches or something like that.
