You sure about that? The fastest electric 1/8th scale there was a Ofna GTP from my neck of the wood. Brian ran 112mph. But he is running a Porsche body which covers the wheels and classifies him in the Electric Modified class. He is also only running a 4cell lipo which is the limit for the modified class. He's running a 1515/1.5D or a custom turned Neu 1515 can with a BIG ole pinion.
Running more than 4s would put you in the Open electric class in which case you would be competing against Nic Case, which I don't see a buggy reaching 160+mph anytime soon...
That why I was suggesting running in the Open Wheel class, which would be the only class you qualify in running a buggy body. Record is on 81.75mph.

Only thing I could think of is some type of cone/wedge shape place on the A-arms to deflect air instead of trapping.
