Norman told me that this was their variant of the Coyote V8.

In the video it appears to be an extremely light shift motion on the
lever so likely not true manual but a Tiptronic style electronic shift
, note the R, N or P preselect buttons on the dash.
Not sure what they are using for a transaxle / gearbox but it's
straight cut gears and the gearbox whine is unbefitting of a supercar,
I know this s only the Prototype, but that hideous noise isn't good
press at all. At Le Mans Classic Norman told us they were developing
their own variant of a V12, in this video he says production cars are a
supercharged V8. One of the 3 P72's at Le Mans wore a Michigan license
plate and was the Roush test mule for the engine, it had the spartan
race interior of the 'Isabelle' car but had been rewrapped on the
exterior.

Jeff,
The P72 uses a sequential manual gearbox, like a motorcycle, as opposed
to a traditional production automobile five- or six-speed.
In all likelihood, it's a paddle-shift gearbox with the hydraulics
replaced by manual activation. Norman Choi is extremely friendly but he
is more than a little bit coy, and is reluctant to share too many
details about these cars since the production cars will differ (perhaps
greatly) in various ways.
I have to say that the public response to the P72 has been
overwhelming. It garners attention like nothing I've ever seen.
