I have an 8B running on 6S, but I use it for track only. Your set-up seems fine for bashing but I am thinking 5S would probably be enough. I run 6S with my MMM and use a Neu 1512 2Y which is a 1400kv motor and that puts my RPM just below 35k. I geared it at 14/48 to get her to around 40 mph and stock out of the box is 13/48. That's why I think you should be at your goal speed with 5S. I only use Zippy's and Rhino packs for now as they have held up nicely. The flightmax are Zippy batts too so I think you will be happy with them. Hope that helps some.
