With a little creativity, you can fit dual 2s2p 8Ah packs in the buggy, but really need dual trays to maintain body clearance. But you need a special mount where the motor is on top, or maybe have it on the front side opposite the servo. Either way, it can be done. I did a Hyper 8 with those exact packs and it works well (for me anyway).

If you have some flexibility, you may want to consider a Truggy instead. There is a lot more room under the body for various battery options, but you may need a slightly bigger motor to help with the added weight.
