The curves start to diverge right from the start. I think it just looks like they're parallel because the wheel weight difference in the simulation is so small. Below is a plot with a much bigger wheel weight difference. The 27 mph in 30 seconds is just a result of the 50N (arbitrary and easy) input force used in the simulation.
