Give Novak a break. There is an organization called ROAR that sanctions races, and they happen to have rules. If you don't want to follow their rules, then don't race in their races. How difficult can that be to understand?

Simple suggestion: get your local track to sanction a race and allow any motor.

Or, if you are really worked up, start your own organization with the hundreds of other angry racing and call it ANYTHING GOES or something like that.

My understanding is that novak was the company to step up and ended up being the first to submit a motor that the rules could be based around. Obviously nobody like castle or hacker intervened. They could have, but they didn't. And obviously, it was agreed upon by several companies.

I've owned plenty of motors and the the only real difference between the coreless wide rotor style motors that castle uses vs. the novak motors in performance is the feel. One isn't more powerful than the other. If you want a specific power, torque, speed combination, all you have to do is select the wind and the gearing. For practical use, there is no combination that one type of motor can do and the other cannot.

Yes, I mentioned the feel (or throttle response) of each type of motor is a bit differen't, but suppose ROAR rules were based on the castle motor instead and involved strict requirements. Then you have people who like whatever it is about the novak style motor complaining. And nope, you couldn't run a neu motor either because its wider. So no matter how you have it, plenty of motors are restricted and plenty of people complain.
