Based on this portion of option three quoted above compared with the ROAR rules here:

8.8.2.3.4 ROAR Spec 21.5 motor: Only three slot “Y” wound stators are permitted. No delta
wound or slot less stators are allowed. Only circular (round) pure copper magnet wire
permitted. The three slotted stator must be wound with 21.5 turns of two strands of a
maximum diameter of 21AWG or 0.0724mm per slot. The resistance for each slot of
the stator shall be tested and a minimum resistance figure will be determined upon
submittal.
What is the main sticking point now for limiting to only Novak 21.5 motors that is part of the USVTA rules?
