Dual BL will not have that much of a gain over single BL, considering the extra weight involved. With dual BL, you pretty much need twice the batteries as a single motor.

My Savage will be entering the competition, with a single KB45 10XL (1200 kv) running on 10s2p A123, with a CC Phoenix-HV110. It's geared 20/46 with a center diff (no tranny), for a theoretical top speed of about 65mph. I haven't reached top speed yet because the suspension is too soft and the oil in the center diff isn't thick enough.
