Good luck getting any 10lb vehicle to 60+ mph on 3s. Basically, you're going to have to get a higher kv motor than is typically used in a monster truck. Along with that, expect a large current draw and lots of heat. I'd start by looking into a high current ESC and a Neu 1515 or Feigao 540 XL motor somewhere in the 3000kv range.

I do have to say that 3s really is a pretty dumb voltage limit on a 10lb vehicle.
