Sounds like a potent setup. As long as you are gearing for 50+ mph that motor should have enough load on it not to overheat. The sidewinder will not have any issues. That lipo should be good for 50+ amps, and i doubt that the motor will pull that much. The batt should be good for at least 600watts considering voltage drop under load.

Good luck keeping that little truck on the ground! Sounds like a fun project.
