As far as lipo price, I would need 10s @ ~5Ah, which would be ~$600. But I have ideas to keep it well under $600.
Brian, I totally forgot about the motor you're using. My fault. If you are really going to try and make it to 100mph and if you ever do get 12S lipos, I'll be more than happy to lend you my 1521/1.5Y, but you must return it as soon as you are done .
