This sensor-based racing system includes Novak-developed X-Drive™ which is one of the most sought-after features in racing. Novak X-Drive™ is a motor-firing technology that provides extremely responsive throttle, smooth braking, and cooler operating temperatures. This translates into faster lap times!

Novak’s proven Ballistic motors contribute to the system’s appeal. Each motor is sensor-based for the ultimate control, includes a high-quality sintered Neodymium rotor, is completely rebuildable with many performance upgrades available, and features an easy-to-adjust timing assembly that alters the RPM range allowing for strategic and smart racing.
