Just a thought, another way to brake an R/C car is to use alum. disc with neo magnet (disc type) and have a servo driven actuator to bring it into very close proximity to the disc. This creates tons of shaft resistance, and would not stress motor or anything. BUT, would not be super responsive as the servo would have to move it in and out. But would always work.
