Depends on gearing....IMO a vxl could probablly be geared for higher speeds than the Novak, I didn't have good luck with mine in an E-REVO conversion. Using the speed calculator my vxl rustler should be doing between 40 and 45MPH on 2S LiPo. I won't completely diss the Novak setup but I would try using the VXL ESC as it is capable of running a sensored motor, I found the Novak ESC to be the weak link, however this would limit you to 3S. My HV-4.5 was 4400kv so if thats wrong correct me but using stock gearing in a rustler that would be 75MPH adjusted speed, drop the spur down and ur looking at 80+ easily which IMO is just silly!:-)
