What is the difference between the 2?

Last does anyone know if drag affects fuel/battery range or top speed? Since these have totally seperate entries it made me wonder how much I can play with the drag without messing those up.

Thanks ahead of time.
fr_ratio is used to position the gravity center, (1 front, 0.5 middle, 0 back), in conjunction with gc_height (meters from the bottom).

LR is left/right drag and UD is up/down drag, they defines the resistance to movement of the object.
I don't know for sure if they affect the ranges, but I think they do.
