I've got an excell spreadsheat to calculate speed in first gear and 2nd gear using stock tires and stock gearing on the truck with 15:49 pinion:spur.
24V on the 9XL motor is only good for 39MPH in second gear with an assumed 20% speed loss due to aerodynamics and driveline friction .....

8XL on the same setup is good for about 44MPH with an assumed 20% loss as well...
