Lincpimp keep us updated on the Novak HV with 5mm. However, I've found that the 1/8 motor shaft is not the weak link. It is the center drive shafts. I seized the main bearing in my Novak 6.5 (non-HV) and both center drive shafts bent, but not the motor shaft. This happened when I was at full speed WOT on the back straight at my local track. I was even running very grippy clay specific truck tires. Of course other motors may not have as high quality shaft as the Novak stuff?
