Your top speed with 4s probably won't be as good as with 14 NiMh cells, but the acceleration will be better. 5s Lipo is just a bit high for a 9L. The difference here between Lipo and NiMh is the voltage of each cell. IMO, you wouldn't be dissappointed with 4s Lipo. Or, you could move to 10Ls and then use 5s Lipo (not sure if you want to spend that much money though).
