The plans that I have laid out for when I start my 5th scale vehicle shows a speed of only 40mph max for the onroad version. The problem with the 5th scale that I see are the plastic parts breaking at such speed. You could go with a bigger spur and 12T pinion to get a more efficient set up which will provide tons of torque and will be fun getting a few extra minutes of run time.
