If you have equal motors, the normal motor will outperform an outrunner in a vehicle. That's because the outrunner has a much higher inertia so it's slower to accelerate and slower to brake. When you use an outrunner on an airplane, it's not a big deal because you are turning a propeller and it doesn't make a big difference if they accelerate and decelerate less quickly.
