Interesting... My guess why nitro won for traction/braking is because the test person/people drive nitro, which is quite different from driving electric. And so, they couldn't adjust to driving with electric (because of electric's smoother powerband, more responsiveness, etc.). If they were given a lot of time to adjust to the electric setup, I'm sure they would find that traction/braking in the electric setup is just as good as with nitro (if not better).

The breaking advantage will most likely always go to the vehicle with the ability of F/R brake bias.
