I would go up to 5s a123 and a lower kv motor. Startup load is high with a direct to diff outrunner, and the more voltage you have the better it will run. I guess you plan to run a MM? Or maybe the MMM?

Your rimfire motor should be ok, but I would go with the 42-60-800. What are your diff ratios and tire size?
