One problem though- the /3 wind only pulls 35a maximum versus the /2's pull of 60a maximum. Would this result in less torque? Should I stick with the 22/45/2 and 12s and gear down, since you say that the extra 2s make a large difference in runtime?

The AMP rating of the Mega are based on continuous (Very conservative) use. It will handle short bursts just like any other motor.

Ok. How does the idea of a 22/45/2, CC HV85, 10s a123, 13/49 gearing, and a 3 speed transmission sound? Also, any guesses how much this thing will weigh?
