As already mentioned gearing and choosing the right motor kv is important otherwise your amp draw will run out of hand especially with high voltage.

I also gear for 38-40mph and can achieve this with 8-11s A123 using a Neu 1515/2Y (1100kv) in my truggy. As i can not influence startup power with my ESC, gearing and cellcount are the methods of choice to influence speed, amp draw and thus power output.
