I think inboard brakes would require even more force than that to stop adequately.
No form of racing that I know of allows in-board brakes:
Formula 1
CanAm
IndyCar
Formula SAE
I would think this option would be *really* hard for a DMV inspector to pass as well. They *always* look for vehicles that have components from other road going vehicles. I spent two years researching this before I stopped production of my tadpole three wheeler.
