Coaster brake has a brake when you back pedal. A FREEcosaster dose not. They started off as people taking the brake out of a coasterbrake hub and filling the gap with washers.
BMX racing never had fixed rear wheels to my knowledge. BMX racing would be hampered by having a fixed rear wheel. BMX means Bicycle motorcross and originally there was quite often alot of riding through mud as well as over obstacles round a short circuit.
