I don't know if Alex soldered them end to end or they are spotwelded.

Only Alex can tell.

But lipo isn't able to put out more power than normal cells, it is more power per lb, so the trucks drivetrain actually is better of with lipo.

You don't need a big ass set up like that to have fun though! i read stories about a XL3100 on 12 cells going 50 mph.. (it depends a lot on the quality of the cells) i am going to make a maxx with 6S lipo and a small motor, such as a basic XL, feigao S or lehner 1930.. make it light, and easy on the drivetrain, because of it being light. ( i am going to use a low kv motor though)
