More or less what ork said. I honestly don't even remember if it affects flat driving speed, but anytime you're above top speed (getting spit out of a warp, right after a turbo is used, a good grapple hook,) you can hold reverse while holding accelerate to decelerate to top speed slower. Heavier cars benefit from this more. Lighter cars will get spit out of warps a little faster, but they don't keep that speed for as long. Heavier cars will get spit out a bit slower but they keep the speed longer, letting you keep traction for powerslides to corner tighter. I'm really lazy so I usually just use cubes and now I'm somewhat known for my shoeboxes, but a few of the other runners build much cooler looking cars.
hey, person who's never seen this game before here. Why's that car your car of choice? it's....a Cube.
The number of bricks determines the weight, which in term affects turbos. I don't know the details.
