A 380c 9t or a lehner basic 4200 will both get you to 45 mph, possibly 50 mph on 9 cells or 3s lipo. A 10 or 11s geared really high would actually be the best 540 motor(s), but the smaller motors will accelerate faster. The reason why I do not recommed the 8s is because you wont be drawing enough amps to reach it's max efficiency.
