4S will work for a 1/10, but 1/10 involves alot of setup work to get it right AND stay on the ground at those speeds.
For an 1/8, you need to be at a minimum of 6S to even have a shot!!! I have personally done 80+ on a LOSI 8T running a 5S, 3500kv setup but it is a 1-2 pass wonder!!
If you want my opinion, and don't take it personal, it sounds like you do not really have a clue of how an RC reacts at the speeds you may have seen on videos or anywhere else. I suggest you get yourself a decent 1/10 sedan that you can get ALOT of parts for, drop in a Mamba 6900 or 7700 on 3S (yes it can take it!!), and get back to us after several flips, broken diffs, and a whole lot of headaches!!! THEN you will have a very small idea of what it will take to build a 100+ car.
I speak from personal experience and I can say that all the fun is trying to get there. I am sure that everyone here including myself are willing to help you out in any way we can, but I definately suggest you try something like what I described above to get your feet wet so you can really see if you want to embark on the wonderful quest of the ever elusive 100 MPH!!!
