You don't need a special charger for the A123 cells. It is recommended to cut the charge at 3.6v/cell, so you could do it manually, or have a device like the LipoDapter do it for you:

You could use the Maxamps 2s 6000mah pack with a 7700. It would be fast :027: According to Castle you should be hitting about 40-45mph with that motor/battery setup.
You can safely run a 3s LiPo with the 4600 motor.
