Braking question
#2

The physics of inline drive is mechanically poor. The gears meet while on an angle, straighten out, then twist away from each other.

Sidewinders have a slightly smoother mechanical mesh. That translates into less friction on an equal motor with the same ratio.

Inline drive has more brakes because of the added mechanical resistance. That's why they tend to lock up moreso than sidewinders.

Chris Walker would be the expert here. I'm just taking a wild guess based on how my cars run.
