Hello,
I wanted to check on a concern I have regarding cooling fans and motor heatsinks...
Is it legal or non-legal in VTA to run motor fan or heatsink with built in fan?
Thanks

I have read the rules many times...

The original intent was to dis-allow the "optional" permanent heat sink/fan made by Novak which required the motor to be physically taken apart to install it. The use of any other optional heatsink fan has always been legal, with the exception of the LRP model that had a 40mm fan.
It was also implemented to dis-allow the light weight, vented, optional internal fan assembly made by Eagle racing and sold thru Integy.
