I was wondering the same thing? Its been quite some time since its been mentioned. I run one now as my track runs ROAR. But it would be nice to know that I don't need to put the hobbywing back in if I go to a USVTA race. I keep it around as my backup. It is a great esc. I only switched because I like the data logging feature. It help me figure out that I wasn't getting 100% throttle and only charging my batts to 8.25v. Made a huge difference in lap times once I was able to sort those issues out.

Do the USVTA guys run the BAND on the center of the motor (that aluminum ring), or is it ok to remove it? If ok to remove, can you use a heat sink on it?
I generally only run the "OUTLAW" VTA classes out here, haven't run a True VTA class, but I hope I'll get to before the end of the season...

Fans and external clip on heatsinks are allowed, but integral type heatsinks/fans including but not limited to those that require motor disassembly to mount are illegal.
I'm going to put a sleeve with a 5.5 sticker on my car, just to be a jerk.

No modifications or optional parts allowed on motor can, endbell, stator, or rotor, other than the Boss #5925 Ballistic 540 Vented Endbell/Bearing Racing Upgrade Kit (replacement) .

Novak GTB3 VTA legal?
I am trying to get into VTA and I bought a new GTB3. I was told this esc would be fine for VTA but I would like to be able to race anywhere since I travel a lot. Is this speedo VTA legal? I checked the official VTA rules and it only mentions GTB2.

Yes you can use that in USVTA as well as ROAR.
