The Xl motors have different cell count capabilities, based on the wind. They are rated for 1300 watts, but some have drawn in excess of 2000 watts under acceleration! The 10 cell motor would be different than the 24 cell motor for ideal performance. For 10 cells, the xl 5000 (probably even the basic 5300, depending on your vehicle's weight) would be pretty impressive. The smaller motors(basic) actually have the ability to spool up quicker, which would probably be to your advantage. The power is ample (a user on this forum has measured close to 2000 watts of output from a basic motor!).
