B&M question

Do the B&M trains have metal fins on the bottom? I don't know if they do. Is everything done through the wheels? When I saw some footage of the Hulk, I noticed that the tires were running right against(sideways) to the main wheels. I also noticed when watching a Sea Wold show on Kraken that it seemed like the brakes pushed inwards on the wheels. Can someone clear this up for me?

No... the brakes squeeze on the middle beam of each bogie's chassis. You can see in various photos the very wide brakes on the track. (Look here: http://www.ridezone.com/oprides/coasters/talon/talon20010123.htm where it says "Another entry view of the Immelmann.")
