Alignment Question

My driveway steeps down at an angle. With my previous car (honda civic) when the car was in neutral, it would role back towards the lower part of the steeping driveway. With my evo, i would release the clutch to let it role in reverse and when i let the clutch go, the car would VERY SLOWLY some to a stop.

would my tires be aligned at a / \ angle causeing the car to stop? i remmber in my civic when i changed the suspenision, that was how the rear tires looked and the car would stop while going in reverse but driving forward wasnt an issue.

Could it also be that the Evo has twice as much drivetrain to spin?

Yes and Yes.

There are many posts on recommended alignments. I am sure you will find the information you are looking for. Some EVO's come from the factory mis-aligned. If you have not had an alignment, I would highly suggest it.
