There's someone here who has gotten an MT up and over 70mph. Can't remember the name. There just isn't much fun in a truck designed just for speed runs, unless it is specifically designed for it.
Think about it:
1: Nitros rpm range is around 30k. BL is about there and up to 60k depending on the motor.
2: Nitro power band is the typical curve; low power at low rpm and then increases until the peak, which is typically fairly near the upper end of the rpm range. BL torque is instant, which is where it counts for acceleration.
So, there are no power benefits to nitro. BL could be made for high speed, but most of us like to use them for racing or bashing, and a high speed truck doesn't do either of those well
